The vendor also noted that the operator aims to deploy innovative data plans and offerings, and deliver an advanced customer experience.
Redknee’s PCS-5000 supports about 55 operators with nearly 1.2 billion subscribers around the world. In a statement, Lucas Skoczkowski, CEO of Redknee, commented that the solution is “enabling operators to maximize the return on their 4G investment, build a competitive advantage through innovative data and multimedia services and improve the quality of experience to their subscribers.”
