Beijing Mobile implements NSN’s direct tunnel technology

Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrint

Beijing Mobile will become the first operator in the region to implement direct tunnel technology commercially. Provided by Nokia Siemens Networks, the solution improves packet core network efficiency, allowing increased data speeds and reliable wireless broadband services while providing a platform for future Long Term Evolution (LTE) deployment.

BeijingWith mobile internet users accounting for more than half of China Mobile’s subscriber base, data throughput has increased close to 200% over last year. Against such a backdrop, direct tunnel provides an intelligent connectivity short cut for the massive user data streams. Transforming to a flat IP architecture via a simple software upgrade, the Direct Tunnel solution delivers substantial operational savings and is key to the operator’s network evolution towards next generation LTE mobile networks.

“Keeping pace with the unprecedented growth in mobile broadband demands innovation – something our direct tunnel solution does well,” said Ding Weiqing, head of China Mobile Customer Business Team, Nokia Siemens Networks. “It enables Beijing Mobile to deliver higher bandwidth, improve end user experience while maintaining simple connectivity architecture and reduced costs.”
