BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--iBasis, a KPN company, received the Service Innovation Award in the 9th Annual World Carriers Awards during the Capacity Europe Conference in Amsterdam on November 19th. The Award is for the company’s pioneering LTE Signaling eXchange (LSX) and LTE Roaming solution for mobile operators.
The iBasis LSX provides a comprehensive solution to the complexities of international roaming across 3G and 4G (LTE) networks. The solution also leverages a complete IPX platform to enable operators to consolidate voice and data services over a single, guaranteed-quality interconnect and make the transition to all-IP networks.
