Siemens Selects Network Monitoring Platform

Spirent Communications has announced that Siemens Networks has chosen SwissQual's QualiPoc system to monitor network performance. Siemens Networks offers a wide range of professional services such as monitoring and benchmarking of mobile network performance vendor independently. SwissQual's system provides a drive test solution that will serve as the foundation for Siemens' new network quality testing and benchmark service.

"Our new wireless test capability is an integral part of our turnkey projects and managed services contracts with wireless service providers," said Stefan Bischof, Director Network Optimization Services. "We selected SwissQual's systems as part of our strategic entry into the wireless service assurance business because they are high-quality, efficient solutions to monitor network service quality."

"The agreement with Siemens Networks reinforces the important role testing plays in network deployments and operation," said Tomas Ahnebrink, vice president of SwissQual, which was acquired by Spirent Communications in January 2006. "Network operators want to be sure their systems provide high quality service at initial deployment. By using SwissQual solutions, Siemens will help operators deploy and manage their networks with confidence."
