Cellcom, a provider of communications services throughout Wisconsin and Michiga,  has selected the Bridgewater to deliver IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) femtocell services and for its LTE network rollout.

Cellcom is deploying the Bridgewater EPC 500 system for IMS femtocell services and for the launch of LTE broadband services. 

“As an innovative, early adopter of LTE and femtocell technology, Cellcom is demonstrating how managing subscribers, devices and applications across multiple access networks can deliver significant value to mobile subscribers,” said David Sharpley, Senior Vice President, Bridgewater Systems.

The EPC 500 is a comprehensive, integrated control plane system that provides subscriber, device, and femtocell data management, policy control, and interworking functions for the LTE Evolved Packet Core. It includes the Bridgewater Home Subscriber Server and Policy Controller (PCRF) both anchored by Bridgewater’s Subscriber Data Broker.
