MOCEAN SMS Router/ FDA
Increasing Network SMS Capacity
In many mobile networks, a majority of SMS sent are successfully delivered within the first attempt. However,
many SMSCs are still operating using traditional Store-and-Forward message processing mechanism. This
results in non-efficient use of resources, reducing the network’s SMS handling capacity. This is not a desirable
outcome as:
It is costly to add more SMSCs
It is costly to add additional SS7 links that are required with the addition of SMSCs
A result of higher CAPEX and OPEX resulting in lower profits
There will be a bottleneck in adding more SMS Applications if capacity is not added, which in turn
results in lower revenue from SMS services
Therefore, Mobile Operator will be in a Catch-22 situation. Mobile Operators will need to find a balance
between expenditure and enhancing service revenues. This is where Mocean SMS Router comes in and
provides the ideal solution for the situation faced.
The Mocean Solution
Mocean SMS Router offers Mobile Operator the ability to optimise network SMS handling capacity by utilising
First Delivery Attempt mechanism. SMS traffic would be routed to the Mocean SMS Router and it will attempt
to deliver the message to the destination mobile subscriber. In the event that the delivery attempt fails, it will
then only forward the SMS to the Mobile Operator’s SMSC for storage and forwarding process. This will
immediately offload the operator’s legacy SMSC systems.
Mocean SMS Router provides intelligent routing, offloading Operator’s SMSCs

Key Features
Ability To Connect To Multiple Entities
Mocean SMS Router supports multiple
protocol support to enable connectivity to
multiple entities in the network. Protocols
supported are SMPP, CIMD2, UCP, HTTP and
HTTPS, providing the capability to interface
to multiple systems easily. SS7 & SIGTRAN
connectivity are also supported.
Flexible Routing
Mocean SMS Router First Delivery Attempt
routing mechanism allows for flexibility to
be based on sending number prefix,
receiving number prefix or originating
customer account. Further account level
routing provide better control of the overall
traffic. Auto re-routing features are also
available, providing route redundancy in the
event of link problems. Mobile Operator can
also configure the SMS Router to skip the
First Delivery Attempt on certain group of
messages.
Reporting
Mocean SMS Router comes equipped with
reporting functions that allows the Mobile
Operator to have a overall view of the SMS
traffic transactions going through the
system. Operators can then optimise their
network capacity planning activities
User Friendly OA&M Interface
Mocean SMS Router comes with easy to use
GUI to allow the operations team to easily
manage the system. This provides shorter
learning curve and more importantly,
lowering possibility of human errors. As the
GUI is web based, it also makes it easier for
the operations team to access it anywhere
over a secure connection.
System Performance Monitoring
Built in system monitoring capabilities
provides status of system elements and
traffic statistics for easy management. Alerts
can also be sent out for notification
purposes. The system can also optionally be
integrated to external Network Monitoring
system via SNMP, allowing Mobile
Operators to have a consolidated
monitoring platform.
Message Filtering
Mocean SMS Router allows Mobile
Operators to have better control over the
SMS traffic going through its network with
Message Filtering mechanisms. SMS
messages can be filtered based on different
criteria such as message contents, sender
identification or receiver identification.
SMS Flood And Spamming Alert
Mocean SMS Router comes with a built in
mechanism that monitors for potential flood
and spam activities through the gateway
and alert the Mobile Operator for further
action.
Billing System Interface
The system captures transaction details and
is able to send the Message Details Record
to the Mobile Operator’s billing system for
further processing. Optionally, if customised
integration to the billing system is required,
this can be done.
Contact us today to learn more on how
Mocean SMS Router can assist you increase
your network SMS handling capacity at fraction
of the cost required in upgrading your legacy
SMSCs.
