Accedian Networks’ professional services group, supported by local partner HTCOM, is monitoring the performance of the largest national network during the world cup.

The role of Accedian is to ensure that the network carrying mobile, data and broadcast-media delivers better quality of service during the event.

“Our team understands the impact high-density network use can have on service quality, and deployed our solutions nationwide to establish complete QoS visibility across all sites,” said Patrick Ostiguy, president & CEO of Accedian Networks.

The World Cup network connects 12 stadiums, airports, press centers and other key venues, providing access through transmission hubs in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. To ensure network performance from the start, each link was verified before the games began using Accedian solutions’ service activation test functionality.

The telecom operator is using the same Accedian platform to concurrently monitor the performance of each service sharing inter-site connections.  Continuous measurements detect even slight performance variations affecting 3G & LTE mobile, broadcast, Internet and data traffic, ensuring each service offers consistent quality.
