Europolitan Vodafone's getting ready for next-generation network monitoring

date: November 22, 2001

AU-System has been commissioned by Europolitan Vodafone to install and integrate a system that will improve the monitoring of Europolitan Vodafone's network and services and in perpetration for 3G based services in the future. By providing a clear picture of which customers and services are affected by any faults that arise, the solution enables Europolitan Vodafone's monitoring centre to give better priority to whatever can best guarantee the service level expected by the company's customers.

Markus Asenryd, head of Europolitan Vodafone's Network Management, says, "The monitoring environment for our third-generation network will be even more complex, so this solution will prepare us for the expansion that will take place in conjunction with the growth of 3G-based services."

Developments in the areas of GPRS and 3G mean that operators will be offering more services and experiencing more traffic in their networks. Furthermore both networks and services will be based on equipment from an increasing number of suppliers. Integrated monitoring will therefore become an important ingredient in the mobile operator's ability to guarantee its customers a high level of network availability as well as contributing to saving both time and money for the operator.

Europolitan Vodafone is a mobile operator with a licence to build 3G mobile telecoms networks. The company's majority owner is Vodafone of the UK, with 71 per cent of Europolitan Holdings AB. Private shareholders, investment companies and pension funds own the remaining 29 per cent.
