India’s BSNL has selected Tekelec to provide mobile number portability for its SS7 and SIP-based networks.

The deal extends Tekelec’s relationship with BSNL, which has more than 55 million mobile subscribers and 35 million fixed-line subscribers. The service provider will add SS7 number portability to the EAGLE signaling platform, which BSNL had previously deployed for Tekelec’s STP advanced routing application.

BSNL also selected Tekelec’s SIP signaling router, an application residing on the EAGLE XG IP signaling platform, for number portability for next-gen network customers. The EAGLE XG extends the capabilities of the EAGLE 5, providing a natural evolution to manage and help solve the routing and interoperability issues that occur as networks transition to 3G and LTE.

In addition to the SSR, the EAGLE XG platform supports other applications including: service broker to blend intelligent network services with new next-generation app, HLR router and ENUM server.

Tekelec had 97 number portability customers – including eight in India – in 33 countries at the end of 2009. Tekelec has won eight out of the ten number portability bids in India it has entered.
