MONTREAL, Ont. Sept. 29, 2008 -- Blueslice Networks announced today that MiNO Wireless has
purchased the
Blueslice ngHLR 3000™ with enhanced features.
MiNO Wireless plans to take advantage of the Multi-IMSI and VoIP
technologies offered by the ngHLR 3000™ to
expand their solution internationally.
With alternatives to roaming growing extensively, MiNO Wireless is
offering a white-label managed service for operators to recoup lost
revenues. Blueslice’s next-generation Home
Location Register will enable MiNO Wireless to develop enhanced services
to create and deploy customized differentiated services. These services
include a state-of-the-art, low-cost, and easy-to-use roaming solution
in which a subscriber can have multiple “virtual”
phone numbers and identities in different networks. The net benefit for
the budget traveler is attractive rates that are notably better than the
dreaded traditional roaming fees.
“After careful consideration of competing
platforms, we selected Blueslice’s next
generation HLR to be the foundation of our managed service,”
said Douglas Cheline, Vice President of Engineering and Operations for
MiNO Wireless. “The ability to map multiple
GSM and VoIP identities to a single user profile enables us to offer a
unique service to our customer operators.”
“We are very impressed by MiNO’s
innovative business model and their go-to-market strategy,”
commented Frederic Bastien, VP, Product Line Management, for Blueslice
Networks. “We felt MiNO was a great fit with
Blueslice and expect to see significant growth from them.”
