Products, Wireless, Quality of Service, China: JDSU has introduced a specially designed edition of RoamerNet, its managed service assurance solution for wireless network operators. The new offering allows wireless operators to test service performance at multiple Olympic venues in China months before hundreds of thousands of wireless subscribers travel to the games in Beijing next summer.

RoamerNet, claims JDSU, “helps ensure quality of service and protects valuable roaming revenue without requiring mobile operators to deploy fixed test and measurement assets.” JDSU has also introduced the “Mobile Service Assurance Kit,” providing information on best test and measurement practices for wireless service assurance.

The kit includes a new white paper “Managed Automated Service Testing: Best Practices for Improving the Mobile User's Experience,” which addresses cost-effective test approaches that can improve service performance and reduce customer churn.

* The Beijing Olympics will take place in 37 venues across seven cities and attendance is expected to total more than half a million, including 500,000 visitors, 10,708 athletes, 70,000 volunteers, 17,600 press and 4,000 staff. Mobile communications activity among these travelers will be intense as they text, phone home, conduct business, transmit photos and otherwise share their experience with friends, family and business associates.
