T-Mobile picks Accedian Networks’ V-NID platform
Accedian Networks, which specializes in performance assurance for mobile networks, has deployed a network performance monitoring system for carrier T-Mobile Poland.
Accedian deployed its V-NID Performance Platform, which will allow T-Mobile Poland to monitor data traffic as it moves from the edge of the network into the core.
Maciej Rozowicz, T-Mobile Poland’s transmission access and aggregation section manager, said the platform “is key to our goal of providing the best service to our customers. The Accedian performance monitoring solution gives us a complete view of network performance and met all our cost and performance objectives.”
T-Mobile Poland pursued this solution because inconsistent backhaul monitoring made it difficult to identify and troubleshoot network issues.
V-NID communicates with actuators to provide network orchestration and performance monitoring. The platform features an open North Bound Interface and open SkyLight API, which allows for integration of third-party platforms.
“We were pleased T-Mobile selected our V-NID solution and that our real-time performance assurance technology helped them achieve their network performance improvement goals in Poland,” Henrik Nydell, V-NID product manager, said in a statement.
“Thanks to close collaboration with T-Mobile and AM Technologies Poland, nearly 16 million T-Mobile customers now experience optimized service reliability, quality, and performance,” he said.
AM Technologies is a T-Mobile Poland partner and helped select V-NID.
AM’s telecom sales manager Wladyslaw Misztal said the deployment was complicated “because it spanned a heterogeneous network, with many technologies, network equipment vendors’ equipment and different protocol domains.”
“But, with good communication and cooperation between T-Mobile, AM Technologies and Accedian Networks, it turned out to be an easy and fast implementation,” Misztal said. “We would normally expect several months more effort and many more operational obstacles to complete a project of this scale where interoperability is a key factor.”
