PertSol’s Indigenous 4G core solution ‘Intelligent Mobile Data Exchange Gateway’ (iMDEG) & ‘Home Subscriber Services’ (iHSS) are gaining huge limelight amongst prospect bidders for BSNL’s 4G project.

PertSol’s iMDEG is a mobile packet data gateway which provides various packet core functions in one solution for mobile data services (3G/4G/5G) and PertSol’s iHSS is a unified subscriber information management system which includes functions like HSS, HLR, AuC, and SLF for GSM, UMTS, LTE, IMS, Wi-fi, and IoT networks.

As the Central Government undertakes PM Modi’s ‘Make in India’ and ‘Aatma Nirbhar Bharat’ initiative thoughtfully, PertSol’s product line tends to dissolve the dependency on foreign companies who are chasing to hold their flags in the Indian Telecom Market.
