IP-VPN Mobile Access is 'Best Data Service Innovation'

Bonn, October 25, 2017 – Deutsche Telekom International Carrier Sales & Solutions (ICSS) celebrated an exceptional triumph on October 25th, when the wholesale unit of DT walked away with not one, but two coveted awards at the Capacity Global Carrier award ceremony. The win for “Best Data Service Innovation” honored the organization’s recently launched IP-VPN Mobile Access solution, while the prize “Best Marketing Campaign Around Industry Events” recognized ICSS’s witty campaign to launch its 360° Defense Strategy at this year’s ITW in Chicago.

“Best Data Service Innovation”
Until today, ICSS's new service IP-VPN Mobile Access remains a rarity on the wholesale market. It offers the same benefits as the company’s terrestrial IP-VPN with the additional advantage of its ability to connect customers with their hard-to-reach locations or even to temporary sites. Based on the high-performance MPLS global backbone of Deutsche Telekom, IP-VPN allows businesses to securely access their virtual private networks using mobile access technology.

The solution is a fully-fledged enterprise data product offering Layer 3 security, NNI handover and flat-rate billing. Those factors, along with full scalability, allow remote or greenfield locations to be easily and cost-effectively connected. Rollout of the service has already been completed in Germany and Hungary with additional countries with T-branded mobile operators to be added soon.

The annual awards ceremony and gala dinner was held at the Intercontinental Hotel in London. It is one of the high points of the three-day Capacity Europe conference, which is billed as the largest meeting in Europe for the global carrier community. This year the event attracted over 600 company representatives from across more than 85 countries .
