Thaicom
Introduces NITRO RAN Optimizer Solution
23 May 2017
Thaicom Public Company Limited announced the
introduction of a series of Radio Access Network
(RAN) optimizers to enable satellite service
providers to cost-effectively optimize
high-throughput 4G/LTE data and voice traffic to
unserved and underserved areas using a single-box
solution. Thaicom is one of the leading providers of
cellular backhaul over satellite service to Mobile
Network Operators (MNOs) in Asia Pacific. With the
introduction of the RAN optimizers NITRO30 and
NITRO100, Thaicom is rounding out its end-to-end
cellular backhaul service portfolio.
Commented Patompob (Nile) Suwansiri, CCO, Thaicom
Public Company Limited, “Cellular backhaul has been
a market of high growth for Thaicom customers across
Asia Pacific. Our IPSTAR broadband satellite system
in combination with our customized solutions on an
endto-end basis has allowed cellular operators
expand their service coverage area and increase
subscribers cost-effectively in the past. With the
introduction of our new series of NITRO Radio Area
Network optimizers we can now complete Thaicom’s
end-to-end service delivery model for cellular
backhaul and add value for our customers in this
market.”
The Thaicom NITRO30 and NITRO100 cellular backhaul
optimizers enhance IP traffic over Radio Access
Networks (RAN) for improved service quality and
boost network performance of 4G/LTE cellular
networks and increase throughput by up to 50 percent
depending on traffic. The solution helps Mobile
Network Operators (MNOs) gain from bandwidth usage
efficiency and reduced backhaul costs by a
significant margin.
Thanks to the software based design of the NITRO30
and NITRO100, the units can be integrated into 3rd
party modems as a virtual machine. The NITRO100
offers up to 100Mbps download and 20Mbps upload
speeds—while the NITRO30 enables download speeds up
to 30Mbps and 10Mbps upload.
“Our customers will appreciate the fact that our RAN
Optimization technology drastically improves service
quality of their cellular networks. We are now
capable of providing an integrated endto-end
cellular backhaul solution that reduces the cost of
installation and operation of cellular networks for
MNOs considerably. This in turn supports our
customers’ mission to expand their business into new
markets, launch new services, as well as increase
revenue and improve the user experience,” said Dr.
Sakon Kittivatcharapong, Senior Vice President
Marketing and Business Development, Thaicom Public
Company Limited.
The Thaicom RAN optimization solution is fully
interoperable with major cellular network operators
and satellite hubs. Its future-proof, scalable, and
flexible platform makes it ideal for networks of any
size and location. The plug-in design capability of
the RAN solution enables seamless integration into
existing networks or new 4G/LTE satellite backhaul
systems. |
