Number Portability (NP)

Number portability impacts nearly every service in your network. It creates billing issues, particularly with prepaid. Routing voice calls and messaging services can be a challenge.

Number portability’s not just an intra-country issue. More and more countries are mandating number portability. Terminating international calls improperly can increase costs to you and your subscriber.

Tekelec’s Number Portability product ensures a seamless portability experience for your customers — regardless of their device, network technology or service. Provide your subscribers with the same dialed number when they change providers, switch service types, or move from one geographic region to another.

Tekelec integrates advanced database management and session control functions on a single platform. That consolidation eliminates congestion caused by unnecessary network connections and signaling hops. With triggered or triggerless options, you can implement the solution that’s right for your network – GSM, CDMA, fixed, or cable.

Benefits:

• Improve network reliability by simplifying signaling traffic routing
• Reduce CAPEX and OPEX associated with maintaining external SCPs
