"We are pleased to be able to provide solutions that offer deep end-to-end visibility and ongoing testing and monitoring, allowing their LTE network to be market-ready and sustainable."
The tier 1 operator will use Tektronix Communications' NSA solution in their test labs in different countries. The comprehensive wireline analysis capabilities together with the complete Uu visibility of the NSA, provides a unique fully correlated user plane and control plane view into the Evolved Packet System. The NSA multi-user platform allows also increased efficiency and productivity of the teams for better return on investment.
About the NSA
NSA is a suite of advanced analytical software applications for troubleshooting and optimization of mobile networks and services. NSA allows users to trace subscribers' control and user plane data both in real time and offline as they travel across the network over multiple interfaces and over several network elements. Identification of network problems and service quality degradation (from the symptom down to the root cause) becomes tremendously fast and easy. The capabilities and benefits of the NSA can be realized across LTE, UMTS (including HSPA), WiMAX and 2.5G/2G networks. As a result, the time required to obtain and analyze data from across wireless mobile networks and in testbed environments is greatly reduced, and carriers and vendors alike can realize improved network testing efficiency.
