IRIS

Hughes Software Systems Ltd, a leader in providing GPRs, UMTS as well as VoIP software to OEMs, today announced the availability of components that would enables OEMs build and deploy IP wireless networks faster.






The company has launched a full suite of Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 4 compliant GPRS Gb and GTP (GPRS Tunneling Protocol) stack source code solutions. This would enable OEM customers to migrate to the next generation networks, and enable quicker time to market.





Using these solutions, OEMs can now migrate their customer networks to operate with the low cost IP transport infrastructure thereby saving deployment costs, reducing interoperability challenges and ensuring applicability in GPRs as well as UMTS networks.





The HSS Gb stack now provides IP transport data security through ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) specified ciphering algorithms, namely GEA and GEA1 with Support for Data compression (as per V.42 bis) and Header compression for IPv4 and IPv6 headers. This product is available for both network nodes-the GPRS BSC as well as the GPRS SGSN.
