Gemalto said American wireless operator Sprint will use its Allynis Advanced Over-the-Air (AOTA) Solution as a Service (SaaS) platform for LTE service activations.
In addition to managing the complexities of providing multi-band 4G LTE connectivity, the Gemalto solution helps Sprint, a SoftBank company, deliver the most up-to-date mobile technologies, services and innovations.
Sprint has 57.7 million subscribers across the U.S. Sprint’s 4G LTE and Sprint Spark next generation LTE network provides service and wireless IP connectivity as a gateway for more connected devices and the growing Internet-of-Things (IoT).
The Gemalto’s AOTA hosted solution reduces the need for expensive installations. Sprint has swift service provisioning for new devices and seamless technical updates and software improvements. It is especially beneficial when Sprint needs to manage the handover between 3G and 4G networks for optimized wireless service.
“Our over-the-air technology currently enables 240 operators. With increased demands for connectivity, Sprint and many others are opting to migrate to our more advanced and robust Advanced OTA platform,” said Sebastien Cano, President of North America at Gemalto.
