The newly extended Sicap Device Management Center (DMC) now enables automatic, network-based pairing between a DSL gateway and a dual-mode mobile device from a single platform.
The announcement means that convergent operators are now able to gain a competitive advantage over mobile-only operators by offering their customers fully automated synchronization of fixed and mobile devices.
In the as yet undisclosed deal, Sicap will use its over-the-air technology and device knowledge bases to activate settings behind the scenes on the customer's behalf, including Wi-Fi pairing with the home gateway box.
