Anritsu make LTE ready for large scale deployment
Anritsu A/S announced today that they have expanded several existing MasterClaw Service Assurance systems to include the capture of LTE events. Telenor Norway is one of several network operators that are now able to troubleshoot service affecting problems in LTE using the same capabilities of MasterClaw™ that they already use for GSM and UMTS.
“MasterClaw™ simplifies complex networks, enabling faster detection and correction of problems, improving service quality. The MasterClaw™ system’s ability to provide a seamless view of 2G, 3G and 4G streamlines network operations, cuts capital expenditure, and reduces training requirements. With one query, an engineer can retrieve all information about a user’s recent activity, even if they have jumped between networks.” said Neil Tomlinson, Marketing Director.
“With LTE, we are continuing our strategy of maintaining one product line for all technologies. MasterClaw™ now captures events on GSM, GPRS, UMTS and LTE networks, and supports network operations, planning, partner management, device management, customer care, sales and marketing activities. This breadth of functionality in one system is increasingly making MasterClaw™ an essential business support system” said Robin Wheeler, Vice President Global Sales & Business Development.
MasterClaw™ with LTE support is available for immediate delivery to new and existing MasterClaw™ customers.
