Italtel has had its “Full MVNO in a Box” solution recognized at MVNO World Congress 2016, in the prestigious “Best MVNO Vendor Solution” category at the show’s awards.
The award – presented during the 15th annual meeting in Amsterdam – acknowledges the solution’s successful deployment to several European mobile virtual operators, defining and implementing their new virtualized Mobile Packet Core Networks.
“Full MVNO in a Box” is a fully virtualized, scalable and cost-effective solution, which enables both data and VoLTE/VoWi-Fi services by providing a comprehensive package of products and professional services to support the evolution towards a full MVNO architecture at a competitive price.
With Italtel’s approach, MVNOs can benefit from a fully virtualized and Network Functions Virtualization(NFV) ready solution, able to expand or contract resources as needed and smoothly growth CAPEX and OPEX according to customer requirements. Having an autonomous system that provides independence from Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) guarantees MVNOs flexibility in introducing value added services, while operational challenges associated with integrating multiple vendors and their products into a single mobile ecosystem are removed.
“In a highly competitive market characterized by eroding profits and margins, evolving towards a full MVNO business model offers an MVNO numerous advantages and restores the balance of its relationship with MNOs,” said Stefano Pileri, CEO at Italtel. “However, the cost of implementing the infrastructure can be prohibitive. With Full MVNO in a Box, companies can do it in a way which is cost-effective and flexible to their requirements. To have the role of Full MVNO in a Box recognized at such a prestigious event illustrates the impact it can have once deployed.” said Pileri.
