Syniverse, Tuesday announced that it has received a multiyear agreement with The Alaska Wireless Network to launch LTE roaming and interworking with a major Tier 1 North America operator. The Alaska Wireless Network has selected Syniverse’s LTE solutions, including Diameter Signaling Service, IPX Network Solution and Reach Management.
According to Syniverse, enabling ubiquitous LTE roaming is a complex challenge that requires thorough testing and issue resolution to ensure seamless roaming processes. A crucial part of this involves the deployment of an IPX network and the enablement of diameter signaling protocol, including managing the proper routing and delivery of diameter signaling messages to ensure seamless connectivity between different operators, said Syniverse. In addition, Syniverse’s Reach Management solution plays an important role to enable roaming agreement management, IREG and TADIG testing, and SIM management.
According to Syniverse, its LTE solutions reach over 35 countries on six continents and touch nearly half of the world’s mobile roaming traffic.
"As LTE becomes the new standard, mobile users will increasingly expect access to the same high-speed experiences all the time, wherever they are,” “Our work with Syniverse is an important step in ensuring we deliver a superior mobile experience on our network and while roaming.”

“We are honored to be selected by The Alaska Wireless Network to support its transition to LTE roaming and to expand on a long and successful relationship. Syniverse has been the first to offer a single-solution LTE testing environment to ensure that mobile service providers can integrate the testing of all of their services through one connection, and we look forward to using this expertise to help The Alaska Wireless Network deliver the highest level of LTE service possible to its customers.”
