Dual-IMSI Roaming http://www.wire9.com/default.asp?section=15&id=38
As part and parcel of our managed MVNO service, you will enjoy automatic international roaming with over 420 GSM operators around the world.
Roaming and financial settlement (and CDR splitting/TAP file generation) is managed direct by Wire9™ and netted once monthly.
Wire9™ issues the MVNO operator a batch of IMSI's for use with their MVNO. In other words, you control your own roaming, which is not tied into in-country national operator.
We can also offer full blown Dual IMSI roaming to spectrum holding GSM network operators - which additionally enables and generates valuable in-roaming revenues. This is an ideal service to compliment any existing bilaterals and gives instant roaming with over 420 international GSM operators.
Wire9™ handles all the IMSI translation, MOU forwarding via a direct or indirect SS7 connection to the Wire9™ network.

Your own MVNO http://www.wire9.com/default.asp?section=15&id=27
The Cloud9™ GSM Mobile system can, in its simplest form, act as a conduit and enabling solution for you to simply set up a virtual GSM operation in the UK and throughout most of the World. In this situation, Wire9™ employs its Cloud9™ system as a VNE (Virtual Network Enabler) linking you into the world of GSM, without the headache; time and financial resources and technical know-how of negotiating with one or more of the incumbent licensed Mobile Operators to set up your own MVNO. The time; resource and cost savings here are vast, and give you a very fast route to market using a already proven VNE system, whilst working with Cloud9™ also gives your MVNO a number of unique value added advantages and additional revenue streams that you simply cannot achieve through a direct relationship with another Incumbent Mobile Operator.
Wire9™ has developed a GSM (Global System for Mobile Telecommunications) softswitch/IN platform compatible with GSM and 3G networks worldwide. Wire9™ operates a MSC (Mobile Switching Centre) with all the functionality of a fully licensed GSM operator – like Vodafone and such like. Via strategic relations with other licensed Mobile Operators worldwide, Wire9™ offers would be Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNO’s) the ability to develop their MVNO offering through the use of Wire9’s Cloud9™ GSM system.
