BLU Telecom picks Alepo BSS for 4G launch
Alepo Technologies has announced a partnership with BLU Telecommunications (BLU) as part of its plan to launch LTE services in Ghana, Telecompaper.com reported on July 15, 2014. Alepo will deploy a complete LTE system for policy control, charging and BSS/OSS. BLU plans to launch LTE services - including data, voice, IPTV and Wi-Fi hotspots for residential and commercial customers - in the second half. As part of the network launch, BLU will offer Alepo\'s Service Enabler 9.0, a BSS/OSS framework that enhances customer experience and back office. The pre-integration of SE 9.0 with Alepo\'s policy and charging control nodes means that BLU will be able to deliver, manage and monetize LTE services upon its launch. Alepo will also provide an AAA infrastructure to support Wi-Fi hotspot services and integrate its platform with third-party vendors including Cisco and Huawei.
