Click to request a PDFThe Trillium+plus Signaling Gateway (SG) binary protocol software solution is a pre-integrated, standards-based signaling solution for Signaling System 7 (SS7) and SIGTRAN interworking in IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), 3G, 2.5G, and 2G wireless networks.

Trillium+plus Signaling Gateway is a pre-packaged solution which includes:

  • Trillium+plus high performance fault-tolerant Signaling Gateway stack binary
  • Carrier-grade PMC/PCI line card with support from 1 to 128 links
  • Integrated management software with persistent database

Trillium+plus Signaling Gateway binary protocol software solution includes the complete features and functionality of SS7 and SIGTRAN network resources that can be managed by standard network management software. The Trillium+plus binary protocol software integrated management layer combines stack configuration, alarming, reporting, fault management, and element management functions.

The software provides multiple customer interface options for industry-standard management Application Program Interfaces (APIs). A C++ API, Command Line Interface (CLI) and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) are available. Trillium+plus Signaling Gateway binary protocol software solution offers a complete integration of MTP2, MTP3, M3UA, and SCTP protocols that facilitates rapid carrier-class signaling deployment solution; the package is available for Linux-based operating systems.
