SMS Interworking Hub for Key2roam® members

31. January 2008

“Since the successful launch of Comfone Key2roam®, Comfone has been working on additional hub concepts for roaming and interworking. The introduction of our latest service feature, the SMS Interworking Hub, will benefit Key2roam members around the world with our fully GSMA compliant solution at no additional cost.”  
Markus Bigler, Senior Product Manager, Comfone AG

Comfone’s SMS Interworking solution requires only a simple additional annex to a member’s existing Key2roam agreement. The operator then achieves automatic access to Comfone’s SMS Interworking Hub based on the commercial and technical relationship already established with Comfone Key2roam.
The Key2roam member will then benefit from:

• Access to the entire Key2roam footprint for SMS Interworking

• Ensured end-to-end responsibility by Comfone

• Same level of transparency as provided by bilateral solutions and as stipulated in the AA.19

• No additional fixed costs

• New SMS Interworking relations opened within a short timeframe

• Reduced complexity

• Full compliancy with GSMA recommendations, supporting all required features, such as traffic filtering by white list, fraud prevention tools and procedures, full routing transparency including Online Reporting and detailed and transparent invoices

• Comfone’s on-going participation in the GSMA’s Open Connectivity Project, ensuring Key2roam members the very latest in new features and requirements

• Interoperability features enabling reach to CDMA networks and to the extended technical features of the Comfone SMS-Interworking Hub

• On-going peering with other hub solution provider, ensuring the Key2roam operator the biggest reach in the market
