T-Mobile Hungary reportedly has deployed Cisco’s content services gateway – a second-generation solution to offer dynamically personalized mobile applications across its network.

 

Cisco (News - Alert) officials said that the CSG2 solution is based on service and application module for IP line card for the Cisco 7600 Series Router and provides advanced processing of Internet Protocol flows for content-aware billing, filtering, management and analysis in a highly-scalable, fault-tolerant package.

 

Officials claimed that the Cisco CSG2 solution offers a flexible, scalable and reliable service personalization and monetization solution and is deployed globally by top-tier mobile Internet service providers.

 

The CSG2’s features include parental controls, as well as flexible billing options adapted to applications. This enables the differentiated pricing of services based on quantity, time, number of bytes downloaded and other parameters.

 

The project was designed and implemented by the Cisco advanced services team in collaboration with KFKI, a Cisco Gold certified partner and a subsidiary of Magyar Telekom.

 

Istvan Maradi, chief technology officer of Magyar Telekom, said that in addition to residential use, mobile broadband services are ideal for various business and vertical applications.

 

Maradi said that with the increase of bandwidth and improved user experiences, the company sees a rapidly growing number of customers, and the rate of expansion has exceeded all expectations.

 

He said that with the Cisco CSG2, the company is able to bring new customers online quickly, provide them with high-speed services in a highly secure and reliable manner, and bill them accurately and clearly.

 

“Cisco is pleased to support T-Mobile Hungary in serving the increasing number of customers who use mobile Internet services. With the Cisco Content Services Gateway (News - Alert) we deliver the scale and performance required to analyze traffic and launch new services much faster while maintaining a flexible architecture,” said Otto Dalos, a client executive for Cisco Hungary.

Cisco is a major player in networking that transforms how people connect, communicate and collaborate.
