Recently, Squire Technologies\u2019 unified signalling solution went live in Awasr\u2019s network, and the impact is already being felt. <\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Awasr Telecom Oman, the internet service provider, recognizes the vital role of telecommunications in connecting communities and fostering economic development. The company\u2019s response to increasing demand for faster and more reliable internet has grown Oman\u2019s telecommunications landscape, and Oman is now a mobile network leader.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4>\n<h4>Oman\u2019s telecommunications regulatory framework<\/h4>\n<\/h4>\n<div>\n<p>Oman has a highly regulated telecommunications sector. Operators follow strict guidelines on interconnection, VOIP, firewalls, remote access, and more. So, operators require robust solutions to avoid falling foul of these rules.<br \/>\nThe country operates a cloud-first policy, placing data centre operators at the heart of Oman&#8217;s telecommunications infrastructure. Furthermore, the Oman Telecommunication Regulations Authority stipulates that data centre operators shall create a carrier-neutral environment by treating Omani ISPs uniformly. So, there is tremendous pressure on operators to deliver high-quality services.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Bridging the connectivity gap<\/h4>\n<div>\n<p>Following the award of an IGW license, Awasr began exploring ways to connect operators. In April 2024, Awasr launched Oman-IX, a collaboration with regional operators, to revolutionise regional digital infrastructure services.<\/p>\n<p>Oman-IX connects organizations, networks, data centres, and cloud services across the Middle East. The hub aggregates local and global network IP peering traffic, enabling peering traffic exchange with other international internet exchanges.<\/p>\n<p>Awasr opted for two data centres to deliver enhanced connectivity, creating redundancy. Using their on-premises data centres allows granular control of infrastructure and data. The control and failsafe are critical for industries and organizations with high security and regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Better connectivity through partnerships<\/h4>\n<div>In their drive to provide superior connectivity, Awasr partnered with Squire Technologies. Squire Technologies&#8217; expertise in signalling interworking proved instrumental in helping Awasr optimise its network performance.<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>To streamline Awasr\u2019s systems, improve connectivity and security, and ease installation of their Voice IGW, Squire Technologies implemented their robust Session Border Controller (SBC). The project removed Awasr\u2019s previous reliance on third-party telecom operators when sending and receiving international traffic.<\/p>\n<p>Awasr saved money and created a physical redundancy by using their own on-premises data centres and physical COTS server instead of virtual machines. Having the redundancy architecture also facilitated a smooth installation of their Voice IGW.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/squire-technologies.co.uk\/document-download-form-svi-sbc-powerpoint\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/SVI-SBC_Graphic-with-button.png\" alt=\"SVI-SBC_Graphic with button\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div>By working together, companies like Awasr and Squire Technologies are paving the way for a more connected future in Oman.
