Static Steering Policies Limit Commercial Performance
Traditional steering approaches rely on fixed rules that cannot adapt to changing partner performance, subscriber behavior, or commercial priorities.
Real-time control over outbound roaming traffic.
We intelligently steer outbound voice and data roaming sessions to preferred partner networks across 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G SA...
Challenges
Industry Challenges
Balancing Revenue, Quality, and Partner Commitments Is Increasingly Complex
Operators must continuously balance roaming agreements, revenue-share targets, network quality, and customer experience across hundreds of roaming partners.
Limited Visibility into Real-Time Partner Performance
Without continuous insight into network quality and roaming performance, operators struggle to make informed steering decisions that maximize both customer experience and commercial outcomes.
Multi-Generation Roaming Increases Steering Complexity
Managing consistent steering policies across 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, 5G NSA, and 5G SA networks requires greater intelligence than traditional rule-based steering can provide.
Roaming Revenue Opportunities Are Often Missed
Suboptimal partner selection, inconsistent steering execution, and limited operational visibility can reduce preferred partner traffic and impact roaming revenue.
Product Overview
We built Telcovas SOR to give operators precise control over outbound roaming traffic, commercially and operationally.
We intercept registration signaling in real time through our integrated Border Roaming Gateway (BRG) across MAP (2G/3G), Diameter S6a (4G LTE), and HTTP/2 SBI (5G SA), combining AI-driven decision models with configurable steering policies to make routing decisions within milliseconds. Steering decisions consider partner priority, historical roaming patterns, subscriber behaviour, commercial commitments, DPI-derived QoE insights, and service capability to continuously optimize roaming performance.
We also extend steering into 5G SA with UDM integration, SEPP-based enforcement, and slice-aware control, while detecting and mitigating anti-steering behaviour in real time.
The Outcomes Are Clear

Capabilities
Product Capabilities
Border Roaming Gateway (BRG) for Unified Real-Time Signalling Control
Our integrated Border Roaming Gateway (BRG) intercepts MAP, Diameter S6a, and HTTP/2 SBI registration messages in real time, providing a secure, standards-compliant control point for steering decisions across 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G SA without impacting subscriber experience.
Flexible policy engine for granular control
We define steering rules across partner priority, load distribution, commercial commitments, DPI-derived QoE metrics, subscriber segments, subscriber behaviour, and service capabilities giving full control over traffic distribution while continuously optimizing steering effectiveness.
Continuous AI Steering Optimisation
We continuously learn from roaming events, partner performance, subscriber behaviour, and steering outcomes to refine routing decisions and improve commercial performance over time.
Policy-driven roaming control at subscriber level
We enable 5G-native steering using UDM-based preferred network delivery and SEPP-based enforcement to control outbound roaming from day one.
Built-in anti-steering intelligence and mitigation
We detect and neutralize RNA Swap, E.164 manipulation, and Fake Location Update attacks, preserving steering effectiveness and providing actionable visibility.
Capability-aware voice steering for roaming subscribers
We match subscribers and network capabilities to ensure voice services work as expected, reducing failures and improving roaming experience.
Enterprise-ready slice steering for 5G roaming
We steer based on slice availability using S-NSSAI mapping and substitution, enabling control and monetization of 5G enterprise services.
Device-level roaming reinforcement through OTA control
We push preferred and forbidden network lists directly to SIMs, reinforcing steering decisions and reducing repeated signaling overhead.
DPI-Enriched Steering Analytics
We combine steering data with DPI-powered QoE insights to provide real-time visibility into partner performance, subscriber experience, traffic distribution, and commercial compliance.
Process
How it works
01
Intercept
We capture registration signaling through our Border Roaming Gateway (BRG) across 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G as subscribers attempt to connect in a visited network.
02
Decide
We apply multi-dimensional policies based on commercial agreements, subscriber profile, QoE, and service capability.
03
Enforce
We steer the subscriber to the preferred network using signalling responses, SIM updates, or hybrid enforcement in 5G SA.
04
Monitor
We track outcomes in real time through dashboards, reports, and alerts, ensuring continuous optimisation and compliance.
Results
Key Outcomes
Increase roaming revenue by 8–15% YoY
We ensure traffic consistently flows to preferred partners, improving the commercial return from roaming agreements.
Drive 75%+ traffic to preferred partner networks
We convert traffic-share commitments into measurable, enforced outcomes with real-time visibility.
Reduce wholesale roaming costs by 10% or more
We shift traffic away from high-cost networks and meet usage commitments automatically.
Protect steering effectiveness from anti-SOR attacks
We maintain steering effectiveness even in the presence of anti-steering behaviour.
Capture 5G roaming revenue ahead of competitors
We extend full steering control into 5G SA with UDM, SEPP, and slice-based capabilities.
Reduce manual steering operations by 60%+
We automate steering execution, monitoring, and reporting, removing dependency on manual processes.
