Elimination of Unnecessary Signaling on the Network
Open Channel eliminates the chatter of the mobile apps that constantly requests network connections when updates are not required.
Coordinated Use of the Mobile Device Radio
Open Channel monitors requests that are made by applications to turn on the device radio and coordinates these to optimize the amount of signaling placed on the network.
Reduction of the Amount of Transported Data on the Network
By only connecting the device to the network when new updates are available, Open Channel also decreases the amount of bandwidth utilized by connected applications.
No Application Rewrite Required
Open Channel is completely transparent to connected applications and requires no changes or special integration by mobile application developers.
Up to 70 Percent Reduction in Data Traffic, and 40 Percent in Signaling
Lab and real-world tests have shown that Open Channel can significantly reduce the amount of signaling and data traffic on the network with some variability depending on the type of application in use on any specific device.
Increased Device Battery Life by Up to
25 Percent
With better coordination of the radio usage across applications and services, the radio is turned on and off less often and draws less power from the device which results in extended battery life.
Protect Yourself from the Risks Associated with Network Congestion
Open Channel brings relief to operators that are faced with the increasing risks of network congestion brought on by the accelerated adoption of smartphones and the proliferation of mobile applications.
Maximized Return on Network Investments and Upgrades
Open Channel requires no changes to the network and is fully compatible with network upgrades. It augments the return on other network optimization approaches and new fast dormancy standards.
