- Reduced MTTR to protect quality of customer experience and reduce churn
CDMA2000/1x-EV-DO Networks Today
CDMA is widely used by operators worldwide for delivering mobile services to an ever increasing volume of customers. Regardless of whether they are a single mobile subscriber with basic services or a “VIP” customer representing a substantial corporate account, improving retention and loyalty by assuring service quality is the essential goal.
While voice traffic is well managed, assuring quality of rapidly expanding data services remains a challenge. Visibility into the activity crossing the converged IP/MPLS core, the associated physical segments, virtual circuits and all the services transported through them is essential for minimizing degradations and responding to network behavioral changes as rapidly as possible.
Assuring Service Performance
  Ensuring high-quality delivery of all applications and services across a packet-switched network core is part of NetScout’s Global Assurance initiative, which allows operators to:
Continuous delivery of applications and services allows companies to:
- Manage capacity and utilization across the physical links of the IP/MPLS-based network core
- Evaluate essential activity and traffic details by the virtual circuit level (MPLS VRFs) and/or QoS classes
- Gain valuable visibility into KPIs such as response time of services, failures, and number of tunnels found between the PCF and PDSN switches on the A10/A11 interface
- Collect critical KPIs from the Pi interface to the Internet related to flows and packets
NetScout Solutions Meets Service Providers' Needs
Our unified solution starts with instrumentation – network, service, and customer metrics gathered via our nGenius InfiniStreams and nGenius Probes – and culminates in the powerful real-time and reporting interfaces provided by nGenius Performance Manager. The result is a highly effective KPI-to-Flow-to-Packet perspective for superior customer-aware troubleshooting and traffic engineering.
Monitoring with continuous data capture and troubleshooting analysis with nGenius InfiniStreams, the next generation of nGenius AFMons and Sniffer InfiniStreams, at critical points in the network where high concentrations of conversations occur delivers real-time monitoring and analysis, trending and reporting, as well as a copy of all traffic for deep reconstructive forensics.
