The signaling gateway, is architected to be between networks that use SS7 and SIGTRAN signaling, such as PSTN, IP, 2G/3G mobile and IMS networks, relaying and routing signaling messages between these different networks, as a key element of the Next-Generation Network (NGN). The NGSG offers TDM-LSL/ ATM-HSL interfaces for connecting to legacy SS7 networks and SIGTRAN interfaces for communicating with softswitches, MGCF and other SIGTRAN-based signaling nodes.

Application

• SS7 message relay between PSTN/ATM/SIGTRAN networks
• SS7 STP substitution in legacy PSTN network
• Interconnecting legacy SS7 signaling equipment in the 2G/3G mobile network with IP-based application servers (IP-SMSC,IP-HLR,IP-AuC, etc.)

Features

• Carrier grade reliability
• Modular scalability
• Open standard interfaces
• Complete redundancy ensuring the highest reliability
• High-density : 624 TDM SS7 signal links
• Supports SS7 STP functionality
• High-performance signaling bandwidth
• Extensive signaling network interfaces (E1, ATM E1, IP)
• Standard signal management protocols for connecting to softswitches (M3UA, SUA, M2PA, SCTP)
• SNMP protocol for NMS connection
• EMS/GUI for convenient centralized operation
• Signaling protocol source developed in-house allowing for fast, low-cost customization
• Experience with a variety of deployments with major telecommunications carriers
