BTC Bahamas Selects Syniverse to Provide LTE Roaming Trial Environment

Bahamas Telecommunications Company (BTC) has selected Syniverse to provide an LTE roaming trial environment that will enable BTC’s transition to 4G roaming services. According to Syniverse, the LTE roaming enablement strengthens a longstanding relationship between BTC and Syniverse in which Syniverse has become BTC’s preferred provider for rroaming, messaging, network and real-time intelligence solutions.

Achieving LTE roaming is a complex challenge that requires testing to ensure the quality of roaming processes, such as diameter signaling, clearing and settlement, and customer-experience protection between one LTE network and another, said Syniverse. In addition, it has has helped providers by conducting a series of end-to-end LTE roaming trials and deployments around the globe, including in North America where the company recently enabled the successful launch of international LTE roaming between two Tier 1 providers in the United States and Canada.

Customer expectations for speed and stability are higher than ever, and it’s critical that we’re able to provide optimal experiences for our Customers, whether they’re at home or traveling,” said Geoff Houston, CEO, BTC. “Our work with Syniverse is an important step to ensure we deliver on these expectations, enabling a seamless, trouble-free experience for our Customers as they roam from one LTE network to another.”
