Syniverse has been selected by Sri Lankan operator Dialog Axiata to provide carrier-grade connection to its IPX Network Solution, enabling the operator to expand its LTE roaming service.

Besides the standard data mobile roaming and clearing, the direct connection will enable the operator to deploy advanced IP-based services in the future, including Voice-over-LTE (VoLTE) and Video-over-LTE (ViLTE) as well as Rich Communication Services. Dialog became the first South East Asian country to launch mobile 4G LTE service in 2013 and has recently started conducting a pilot on the LTE-Advanced service.

Syniverse said that its IPX Network currently serves more than 1,000 LTE roaming routes and includes more than 100 LTE direct connections that make it possible for Syniverse to deploy LTE and VoLTE around the globe. In addition, Syniverse has recently made possible the world’s first transoceanic VoLTE roaming call, supporting the world’s first VoLTE roaming service.

Sanjay Kasturia, Vice President and Managing Director, Sales, India, Syniverse said: “The agreement with Dialog builds on our long relationship to make mobile work for the operator with multiple solutions, including data clearing, roaming fraud protection, text and multimedia messaging, and Wi-Fi roaming.”
