SVI-STP FEATURES

Squire Technologies Signal Transfer Point Features Highly Flexible Routing Options Between Multiple Networks

Feature rich future proof carrier grade telecommunications Signal Transfer Point that provides core network connectivity and routing between multiple networks supporting legacy SS7 TDM, NGN IP SIGTRAN and IMS / LTE / 4G support.

Complex Routing

The SVI-STP Signal Transfer Point features highly flexible routing options with regular-expression based manipulation of outbound message contents.

MTP Routing
Route on MTP label
OPC and DPC
Network indicator
SIO

SCCP Routing
Routing on incoming SCCP label- Called and Calling
– GT,PC,SSN
– NOA, etc
Variant Translation ETSI to ANSI
Outgoing SCCP label manipulation
Translate routing variant (GT > PC + SN, etc)

Flexible MSU Record Capture

The SVI-STP provides a flexible mechanism for the capture of all MSU messaging storing as:

ASCII based MSU records
Configurable ASCII based CDRs
Store MSU details in SQL database
MSU duplication enables messages to be sent to 3rd party applications – ie. monitoring

Allows operators to perform Billing Reconciliation, Network Analysis etc.

1+1 Redundancy

1+1 Dual Plane Worker/ Hot Standby
– Database and signalling information check-pointed between planes
– Replicated hardware and software
Eliminates single points of failure
Five Nines uptime (99.999%)
Single Point Code spread across dual plane architecture
Single OA&M interface over VIP address
Real time Maintenance upgrades
