  • Enhanced LCR to provide predictive policy based model driven routing
  • Transaction rates of 20,000 route queries per second.

The Sansay product portfolio including the Rome product family and individual product descriptions are shown below:

ROME

  • HRS- High Speed Route Server that centralizes the carriers routing and policy decision making
  • Business LCR-Enhanced LCR application that provides predictive business model based routing configurations for the HRS and the VSXi systems.
  • NLS- Number Lookup Server that provides LNP based routing lookups that can improve routing accuracy, increases network wide call performance and can reduce termination costs
  • HBS- High Speed Billing Server that provides a comprehensive carrier billing and reporting solution
  • MMS- Performance monitoring and management system that provides session performance analytics and VSXi configuration management for single or multi-site deployment configurations
  • Increased Fraud protection capability with calls in progress termination capability with VSXi , HRS, and carrier billing solutions

The Rome product family can be deployed in carrier networks as a complete family or deployed as individual platforms. All Rome HRS and NLS platforms support queries from a number of VoIP devices including the Sansay VSXi session controller. The high transaction rate of these devices allows the support of a large number of VSXi systems at one time. Routing and number lookup queries are sent to the platforms via a SIP invite message and responded with a SIP 302 redirect message. Additionally Rome can support services to other 3rd party session controllers that support SIP 302 redirect messages.

Performance monitoring, policy management and the associated data analysis have become a critical and a growing need for carriers; the Rome MMS platform addresses these needs. Providing historical and real time charting of ASR, ACR, PDD, and MOS scoring as well as alerting support staff by SMS and email enables carriers to achieve a high level of management control over the network.
