UMTS Deployments of Femtocell Devices can now be Monitored and Analyzed by
RADCOM's end-to-end Solution
BARCELONA, Spain, February 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RADCOM, Ltd.
(NASDAQ and TASE: RDCM), a leading network test and service monitoring
solutions provider, today announced that it has extended the capability of
its Network Consultant troubleshooting solution to deliver analysis of
Femtocell technology for UMTS networks.
"Femtocell deployment is still in its infancy," said Ohad Lendner,
RADCOM's Director of Product Management for Cellular Solutions, "but
RADCOM's Network Consultant solution already delivers support for its high
performance needs, allowing online analysis and detection of service
problems, such as Femtocell faults, interference, pollution, congestion and
handover failures. The end-to-end view of subscriber activity provided by
Network Consultant includes correlation of all signaling, enabling
troubleshooting of faults on the Radio and Core Network and providing
analysis of QoS affected by radio sub-network problems. It simultaneously
monitors the activity of thousands of Femtocells and calls, providing
reports, KPIs and alarms."
Femtocell solutions are now being deployed to improve residential and
office cellular connectivity using in-room access points. Service providers
are promoting the technology as a cost-effective way for customers to
extend indoor coverage. However, this service puts extreme loads on the
network, with thousands of cells located throughout the service area. With
revenue dependent on the ability to provide smooth connectivity of those
cells to the network, UMTS operators can now extend their network view to
the Femtocells to assure quality of service (QoS) for those home/office
customers.
The Network Consultant troubleshooting solution correlates information
detected on the various UMTS, GPRS and GSM interfaces and presents them in
one unified view. Its wide range of features provides both online and
offline end-to-end radio access, Core signaling and Core IP session and
service level overviews. Network Consultant drills down into each
interface, analyzing voice, video and data sessions.
Using RADCOM's innovative Network Consultant, cellular vendors and
operators can test specific cellular components and perform full system
testing of the whole cellular network. In addition, they can view and
analyze QoS end-to-end, together with other vital cellular procedures such
as attached/detached/PDP contexts, handover analysis, roaming analysis,
handset type analysis, statistics, alarms, network errors and abnormalities
throughout the whole IP session, voice or video call.
