Cell C is launching its VoLTE services using ng-voice’s fully cloud-native IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and ePDG (AAA) and has now successfully completed its first VoLTE call on Amazon Web Services (AWS). This strategic deployment will enable the delivery of Voice over LTE (VoLTE), Voice over New Radio (VoNR) and Voice over Wi-Fi (VoWiFi) services, enhancing voice communications for all customers in South Africa and future-proofing Cell C’s network.
VoLTE (Voice over LTE) is a service that allows users to make voice calls over a 4G or LTE network instead of the older 2G and 3G networks. VoLTE offers several benefits, including:
-
- Improved call quality: VoLTE provides HD voice quality.
- Simultaneous data and voice transfer: Users can transfer data and make voice calls at the same time.
- Faster call set-up: VoLTE allows for faster call set-up times.
- Better network availability: VoLTE provides better network availability.
- Improved battery life: VoLTE is more efficient than traditional voice services, which can improve battery life.
- Enhanced security: VoLTE offers enhanced security features, including encryption of voice data during transmission
Collaborating with ng-voice and AWS represents the ideal solution for Cell C, enabling the industry leader and technology pioneer to drive innovation in the region by leveraging ng-voice’s cloud-native portfolio. This is perfectly suited to take advantage of the AWS Cloud and unlock the full potential of African networks.
Cell C: Schalk Visser, Chief Technology Officer, said: “We were looking for a solution that would enable us to deliver high quality, reliable, and cost-effective communications services to our customers, with the flexibility to scale as required, ng-voice’s IMS on AWS is the perfect solution for this, guaranteeing unprecedented service resilience, combined with a very high level of automation and a low resource footprint. This collaboration aligns with our commitment to harness the power of technology to meet our customers’ evolving needs”.
Cell C: Schalk Visser, Chief Technology Officer Dr. David Bachmann, Chief Executive Officer of ng-voice, said: “We are thrilled to be part of this major milestone for Cell C and the region. Launching VoLTE with ng-voice’s Hyperscale IMS on AWS means deploying a highly automated solution that can scale on-demand in the public cloud, enabling Cell C to deliver superior voice quality while minimising production costs. We are committed to replicating this success across Africa to make this innovative solution available to more operators, driving the future of cloud-native communications in the region.”
