Telenor selects Alcatel to enhance mobile internet services
Alcatel-Lucent and Telenor Group have signed a three-year global frame agreement that will give customers buffering-free mobile video and improve internet service quality in eleven countries. The agreement will enable the deployment of mobile internet optimisation for Telenor's 2G, 3G and 4G networks in Europe and Asia. Telenor will deploy technology that automatically manages the delivery of internet traffic over a mobile network. 

Alcatel-Lucent will provide its professional services expertise including system architecture, design, planning and integration and testing to provide a service for each of Telenor's markets. The mobile internet optimisation service includes Opera's Skyfire Rocket Controller and Optimizer, virtualised software that optimises video streams and web in real-time on a per device, user and session basis and ConteXtream's Session Control to manage end-to-end sessions across the network automatically directing video traffic to Skyfire based on rules or policies decided on by the operator. In addition, Alcatel-Lucent is providing its Velocix 7810 Transparent Caching to temporarily store content closer to subscribers, as well as its 9900 Wireless Network Guardian to monitor service quality and provide network analytics.
