eGTP formulates the primary bearer plane protocol within the LTE and Evolved Packet Core (EPC) architecture. eGTP-c (i.e., GTPv2) provides support for tunnel management including handover procedures within and across LTE networks. eGTP-u provides data tunneling support in the LTE and EPC. Trillium eGTP-c is a complete implementation of the protocol layer as specified in 3GPP TS 29.274 Evolved GPRS Tunneling Protocol for Control Plane (eGTP-c). Trillium eGTP-u is a complete implementation of the protocol layer as specified in 3GPP TS 29.281 Evolved GPRS Tunneling Protocol for User Plane (eGTP-u).

Trillium LTE eGTP software enables Network Equipment Providers of eNodeBs, MMEs, Serving GWs, PDN GWs, ePDG, and so on to:

  • Accelerate time to market
  • Reduce development costs
  • Reduce project risk of internally-developed LTE applications

Product deliverables consist of C source software, documentation, training, Trillium XML Test Architecture (XTA), a warranty, and technical support.
