Scenario
A mobile
operator had been facing problems of excess data traffic on its 3G
network, especially in areas of high concentration of people in
urban centres. So it needed to find a way to expand infrastructure
without having to make heavy investments.
Solution
The operator chose to create a Wi-Fi based infrastructure, which
would function as an alternative to 3G subscribers when they were
in some selected sites - those in which data network demand is
larger.
To make the project (the first of its kind in Latin America), the
company had PromonLogicalis services and Cisco equipment. The
solution includes the supply of Cisco controller, management and
access points, besides integration services to the mobile core,
assisted operation and support.
Benefits
Thanks to the project, the operator was able to vent their data
network with lower investment (CAPEX). As investment in 3G network
is far superior to the creation of WiFi sites, the solution
provides a significant savings in CAPEX for the mobile network
operator.
In addition, the company managed a gain in image and customer
relations, since the mobile internet navigation now offers a
superior experience.
