MuLTIPLE MVNO:s ON
ONE PLATFORM
An important strength with Nobill is its support ormultiple MVNOs and MNOs within a single system.This capability is possible because MVNOs can beconfgured to share the same network. Nobill can alsobe confgured to span multiple networks.
Using logical partitioning in Nobill, each MVNO
has its own dedicated Service Data Point (SDP)instance, thereby ensuring complete data separationand integrity between MVNOs. This means thateach MVNO has its own set o subscribers, products,taris, Customer Care, SIMs and other resources.
The logical partitioning also guarantees separationo all trafc including SS7 trafc, IVR services, USSDservices, etc.
