Signaling control system
Easy to manage, cost-efficient and future-proof core signaling networks
Smarter signaling, routing and control
Tietoevry's Evolved Signaling Controller (ESC) is an all-in-one solution that seamlessly handles signaling control and routing in 2G, 3G and 4G networks as well as the upcoming 5G network.
It allows network operators to reuse capacity easily when traffic moves from legacy to modern networks, and also serves as a single replacement for solutions like signaling transfer point (STP), signaling relay point (SRP), intelligent signaling gateway (SGW), diameter routing agent (DRA) and diameter edge agent (DEA). It also includes signaling firewall functionality to protect networks from security threats.
