The features of Gateway6 Mobile include transition to IPv6, dual-stack solution using existing 3G network infrastructure, dual-stack connectivity over single PDP context for 3GPP networks and scalability.
For mobile communications to grow and flourish the transition to IPv6 must occur. During the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 the two protocols will need to interoperate without disrupting current services, said Bruce Sinclair, chief executive at Hexago.
Gateway6 Mobile provides operators with a flexible managed IP tunneling mechanism in addition to multiple translation methods. The IPv6 deployment functionalities of Gateway6 Mobile are packaged in a carrier grade platform for operators. It also delivers dual stack connectivity to mobile users without relying on channel intensive strategies such as dual Plasma Display Panel (PDP) contexts.
Hexago has been working on IPv6 transition to improve its products and services. In September 2007, it partnered with technology consultancy company SynExi to develop IPv6 Transition Guide for US government agencies to offer techniques for their transition to IPv6.
The company will exhibit Gateway6 mobile at GSMA Mobile Asia Congress in November 2007 at Macau.
