Mobile carriers are always on the lookout for improved network abilities. This enables them to provide better services and reduce their overall costs. An ideal network also enables them to compete with other providers by carrying more traffic and breaking down less often.


Range Networks has opted in for a major upgrade of mobile networks with its partnership with 2600hz. According to the agreement, 2600hz’s powerful Kazoo telecom services platform will be integrated with Range Network’s OpenBTS-powered radio access networks. As a result of the combination of these two, mobile network operators and private network service providers are expected to get a state of the art, all-software, all-IP wireless network architecture.

The integration of these two powerful networks will provide a common voice and message switching architecture for cellular, wireline VoIP and WiFi (News - Alert) VoIP (VoFi). This integration will also provide enhanced network resilience as it provides features such as built-in redundancy and intelligent management of distributed operations. This integration reduces operation cost as it runs on standard Linux environment.

This integration is expected to open up the market like never before as it facilitates the entry of new operators. These operators can have the cost advantages and compete with the established players more on equal terms.

“The combination of Kazoo and the OpenBTS network architecture represents a major leap forward in expanding the reach of new, non-traditional mobile networks,” said Edward Kozel, CEO of Range Networks in a company press release. “It’s amazing to see the simplicity and flexibility of Kazoo-managed wireless IP operations extended to cellular networks.”

Recently, Range Networks announced that Rogg Corporation developed a solution with the help of OpenBTS and Range Networks’ hardware to assist in search and rescue missions in the Icelandic highlands. This technology can help save lives, wrote Joe Rizzo, TMCnet Contributing Writer.
