Ericsson delivers a step towards all IP network Telstra opens direct data tunnel
Telstra has activated in their Next G network an important new feature for the Mobile Packet Core network called 3G Direct Tunnel. Ericsson is the first vendor to deliver this significant advance to mobile operators.
The 3G Direct Tunnel feature provides a capacity increase to Telstra's mobile packet core network, supporting the fast growth of mobile broadband traffic. The functionality is implemented in the existing network through software enhancements, with no additional hardware required and will make the network more efficient in its handling of data packets.
The feature is standardized by 3GPP, the defining body for mobile network standards. By implementing it Telstra starts to evolve the Next G network to a flat all-IP architecture that will allow the network capacity to grow while lowering the cost of expanding the network to meet ever growing demand.
