| Virtual Network Operator
Many service providers are now growing their businesses by leasing out their existing infrastructures to virtual network operators (VNOs). The VNO business model allows service providers to maximize usage of their networks by acting as mobile WiMAX wholesalers instead of marketing directly to potential subscribers.
SOMA solutions complement the VNO business model through OSS interfaces that enable detailed reporting on network usage. Using this reporting capability, service providers can easily track subscriber activity on the network infrastructure leased to VNOs.
This makes it much easier for service providers to:
- Monitor overall network utilization.
- Provision service profitably
- Streamline the billing process
SOMA solutions make the VNO business model an even more attractive option for providers who want to offer wholesale services.
