Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced that Sonar and Camvio, two leading billing and operational software providers, have joined its Connected Partner Program (CCP). This program aims to reduce the risk, cost and time required to implement, modify, and maintain OSS interoperability with Nokia Fixed Network solutions. Sonar and Camvio successfully integrated their solutions with Nokia’s Altiplano Access Controller to fully support and automate network management and service delivery processes for fiber-to-the-home services. This initiative supports service providers in expanding their fixed access network business and successfully advancing their digital transformation goals.
The CPP allows Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and network operators to choose back-office solutions that best fit their business needs without facing the integration challenges typically associated with implementation. This can include various management capabilities including service provisioning, configuration, fault, performance, and inventory management. Independent software vendors in the program collaborate closely with Nokia to ensure their OSS/BSS software solutions are interoperable, accelerating the system design and reducing integration costs with high-quality, pre-validated solutions. The program also offers training, tools, and support for integrating, maintaining, and modifying OSS/BSS solutions, providing full access to Nokia Altiplano’s programable and open interfaces.
Ray Bixler, CEO at Sonar, said: “The future of the ISP industry lies in automation and seamless integration between platforms. By collaborating with Nokia, we’re enabling ISPs to harness the combined power of our platforms to achieve significant levels of efficiency and agility. Our joint solution empowers ISPs to automate provisioning, enhance network monitoring, and streamline critical back-office functions, allowing them to focus on delivering exceptional service and grow their business.”
Amir Heydarkhan, CTO at Camvio, said: “Camvio and Nokia’s shared alignment and commitment to open APIs has facilitated the rapid integration of Camvio with Nokia’s Altiplano solution to help simplify FTTH deployments. We are excited to be working with Nokia, which has the right-sized solutions for all of our customer’s needs, including BABA-compliant products that are now available for BEAD program grants. Together, we can help broadband operators achieve enhanced operational efficiency, streamlined processes, and reduced downtime.”
David Eckard, VP of Broadband Partners at Nokia, said: “We are excited to welcome Sonar and Camvio to our growing Connected Partner Program. By combining our open APIs and advanced software-defined networking products with their expertise in back-office billing and operations, we are delivering complete solutions that help our customers streamline their operations and advance their digital transformation goals. Through our program, operators of all sizes can leverage best-in-class products to eliminate error-prone manual processes, accelerate service delivery, and improve overall network performance.”
