stc group, a leading digital enabler, has announced an expanded partnership with iBASIS, a leading communications solutions provider, to offer a multi-service IP exchange (IPX) solution and the signing of a Flash Call Proof of Concept (PoC) agreement. This expanded collaboration will strengthen stc group’s global digital infrastructure by boosting network capacity and integrating advanced analytics.
The multi-service IPX expansion will build a secure, dedicated global network across stc group digital infrastructure that will facilitate the exchange of all IP-based traffic across data roaming, voice, and signaling on operators worldwide. By leveraging iBASIS’s sophisticated IPX infrastructure and analytics platform, stc group will gain real-time, granular visibility into global data traffic.
This advanced capability enables proactive network management, faster incident resolution, and continuous quality monitoring. Global data traffic will ensure optimal network performance and superior customer experience, especially during high-traffic events, such as Hajj and Saudi tourism events like Riyadh Season, which are all powered by stc group’s networks.
Mohammed Alabbadi, Group Chief Carrier & Wholesale Officer, said: “This strategic investment firmly positions stc group as a global leader in delivering intelligent and resilient infrastructure to serve our region and beyond. We are excited to build on two decades of our trusted partnership with iBASIS to expand our capabilities and better serve our stc community.”
