Aptilo Networks have become the global leader in pre-integrated service management solutions for control of billing, user services and access in wireless networks including WiMAX™ and Wi-Fi. In WiMAX, we are the glue between the radio network and the OSS/BSS back-end systems providing world-class real-time charging and service control to enable state-of the-art WiMAX services. Aptilo provides most of the important functionality needed in the WiMAX Connectivity Service Network (CSN) as defined by the WiMAX Forum.

Aptilo is a member of the

WiMAX Forum

WiMAX Forum.
 
In order to deliver an end-to-end solution the pre-integrated Aptilo WIMAX CSN System™ also includes subscriber management with a built-in user database and portal functionality for WEB-Selfcare and Hotlining. Operators may also build their own solution with different 3rd party or Aptilo building blocks around our WiMAX AAA+ core bundled with our Policy Engine and delivered as the standalone Aptilo WiMAX AAA+ Server™.
 
With our heritage in the Wi-Fi market, Aptilo can add unique value not only in the Mobile WiMAX 16e space but also for Fixed WiMAX 16d and pre-WiMAX operators. Aptilo delivers an end-to-end solution enabling these operators to offer WiMAX 16e-like services over fixed WiMAX for their subscriber base while opening for a smooth migration path into WiMAX 16e services.
 
Aptilo’s WiMAX solutions are delivered as system software running on commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) servers or optionally as the

Pre-integrated WiMAX CSN solution for fast-track deployments

Pre-integrated WiMAX CSN solution for fast-track deployments

The CSN typically consists of several different subsystems for functions like WiMAX AAA, DHCP, post- & prepaid billing, provisioning, customer portals, policy management, captive portals, customer care, service portals, mobility management and more. These subsystems frequently come from different vendors, which often leads to significant time and money spent for the operator in the procurement, integration and maintenance processes. This can have a negative impact on time-to-revenue and time-to-launch of the service.

Aptilo offers a unique and simple approach to overcome many of these challenges. We have pre-integrated most of the different subsystem’s functions into the award-winning

Aptilo WiMAX CSN System™

Aptilo WiMAX AAA+ Server™

Aptilo WiMAX AAA+ Server™, few things speed up deployments more than choosing vendors with proven interoperability. Furthermore, WiMAX operators must be able to select the best-in-class equipment for each occasion, reduce risk and drive down costs by implementing a multi-vendor strategy. This is why Aptilo is driving interoperability testing with other vendors in the WiMAX ecosystem. We have confirmed interworking through customer projects and partner testing with the

majority of WiMAX base station, ASN Gateway and Mobile IP Home Agent vendors including Airspan, Alvarion, Aviat Networks, Cisco, Huawei, Intracom, Iskratel, Motorola, Redline, Samsung, Starent, WiChorus and ZTE.

We know this work is a crucial part of the fast-track equation and that there is significant amount of money to be saved for operators that are deploying WiMAX services if they can choose from a variety of vendors that all work together from the very start.
