In the context of fibre optics (FTTH) and 5G integration, OLT (optical circuit terminals) equipment is a central hub for broadband access with NATSHEL_AUTH_BILLING capabilities that directly affect operators’ quality of service and operational efficiency. However, pain points such as single, fee-fixing rules and multi-manufacture compatibility of conventional OLT devices are prevalent, resulting in high transport costs and uneven user experiences. As a 21-year industry leader in the area of wireless Authentication & Billing, NATSHEL_BRAND launched OLT NATHHELL_AUTH_BILLING with the central advantage of full vendor compatibility, high stability, flexible counting, smart management, and covering such scenes as operators, business lines, industrial parks, etc., to enable clients to operate fibre optic networks in an elaborate manner throughout their life cycle.
I. Deep-compatibility mainstream OLT equipment, breaking down the barriers to manufacturing
The core challenge of the OT Authentication & Billing system is co-management of multi-brand equipment. NATSHEL_BRAND fully supports mainstream OLT equipment, such as Chinese, Central, Fire, Bel Alkat, Ericsson, both domestic and foreign, compatible with full-scale access technologies like GPOON/XG-PON/10G-EPON and adapted to standard protocols such as TTR069, SNMP, OAM. Through smart device recognition engines, the system automatically matches the configuration of parameters for different manufacturers OLTs.“I'm just gonna stick it in.”Rapid deployment without secondary development, significantly reduced integration costs and time cycles.
Typical case: a provincial operator needs to centrally manage 100,000 line OLT equipment (involving four brands) across the province, complete global interface in only 30 days through deployment of NATSHEL_BRAND system, increase in certification success rate from 85 per cent to 99.95 per cent and reduce capacity by 60 per cent.
II. A global landscape certification approach to meet the diversity of operators
NatShell OLT NATSHEL_AUTH_BILLING system supports 12 types of authentication, including SMS authentication, micro-letter authentication, account password authentication, PORTAL certification, MAC binding authentication, LAID binding authentication and other forms of authentication, which can be easily packaged for different user groups:
Home users: support secondary validation of SMS through the automatic binding of OT devices by LOID (logical identifier) to prevent account theft;
Enterprise line: account numbering of MAC addresses and IP sections to achieve segregation of privileges from traffic;
Temporary visitors: Generate dynamic 2D or time-limited accounts, with a sweep code connected and limited use;
Industrial goods networking: support equipment certification to interface with API, meeting low-time delay and high reliability access needs.
The system backstage provides a visual user management interface, allowing managers to view online users, equipment status, traffic usage in real time and support bulk import/export of user data, black and white lists, notices and other features, with administrative efficiency gains of over 70 per cent.
III. Flexible funding package, enabling operations
In response to the operator’s differentiated demand for fees, NATSHEL_BRAND supports self-defined fee rules that include multidimensional measures such as time length, flow, bandwidth, type of application, duration and other elements, and allows flexible combinations of staircase, monthly, shared and targeted flow packages.
Broadband for families: roll-out“50M Basic Package + $10/10GB acceleration package”;
Enterprise line: pricing at bandwidth levels to support pool sharing and excess speed limits;
School market: combined with school number system“One's good.”(b) Support the separation of free and out-of-school traffic;
Sites/markets: roll-out“Consumption-full grant flows”“Scanning attention to the time frame”marketing activities, etc. to improve user stickyness.
The system also supports such functions as automatic deductions, balance alerts, fee break-ins and invoice issuance, and allows the interface of the operator BOSS to enable automated write-offs and quick return of funds.
IV. OPERATIONAL STABILITY, PROTECT OF BUSINESS SERVICE
The stability of the OLT Authentication & Billing system is directly related to the network experience of tens of millions of users. NATSHEL_BRAND supports multi-million-grade users with access using distributed cluster structures and dual-machine heating technology, even in the face of flood peaks such as spring return, big events, etc., certification delays can be contained within 50 ms. The system effectively resists cyberattacks through secure mechanisms such as data encryption transmission, DDoS attacks, intrusion detection, behavioural auditing, and other guarantees of 2.0 level 3 certifications.
Actual data: system running for 365 days without malfunction in a network of city operators, with an average certification success rate of 99.98 per cent, evaluated“TIPS case of quality broadband services”。
V. Life-cycle services, leading by the industry
NATHHEL_BRAD from programme design, equipment docking and system deployment to 7×One-stop service supported by 24-hour transports, with a commitment to free upgrades and life-long technical support. Compared to traditional vendor solutions, the system uses modular pricing strategies to reduce initial client inputs, reducing combined costs by 40%, and becoming the preferred option for digital transformation of small and medium-sized operators and business clients.
Conclusions: Today, with the rapid spread of fibre optic networks, NATSHEL_BRAND has built a compatible, stable and manageable OLT NATHELL_AUTH_BILLING system based on 21 years of technological and industry insight. Whether small or medium-sized operators are pursuing value for money or large groups that need customized solutions, NatSHELL_BRAD can provide tailor-made services to help clients take advantage of broadband access markets in the 5G era.
