A Home Subscriber Server(HSS) / Home Subscriber Register(HLR) serves as the primary database repository of subscriber information within a LTE/EPC or IMS network core. By centralising all the subscriber information in a single place it allows the signalling to be separated from policy providing a stream lined, high performing network.
Compatibility with 2G/3G/4G/5G mobile core, one set of profile for all
One instance with EPC-HSS, IMS-HSS, 5G UDM, 3G HLR functionality
Seamless support for multiple identities per subscriber
Support Redundancy Deployment
Support GSM, UMTS, LTE, NR, IMS, Wi-Fi and M2M networks
Run on bare-metal, virtual platform or Cloud
Field-proven with main stream vendors
IPLOOK's Virtualized HSS/HLR
Support 2G, 3G, 4G, IMS and 5G
IPLOOK offers a complete solution through our HSS/HLR. Our HSS/HLR solution is ideally suited for MNO, MVNO/MVNE and M2M market. It is designed to overcome the limitations and disadvantages of traditional HSS products regarding flexibility, virtualization, cost of scaling and vendor lock-in.
Our carrier-grade HSS/HLR software is flexible and adaptable to the needs of the customer, that allows seamless migration and interworking and delivers significant feature and cost advantages over traditional products to both small and large service providers.

Multi-level backup mechanism
» Level 1: 2N or N+1 redundancy solutions are applied in backup user data stored in cache. The user data from the main unit will be synchronized to the backup unit in real time.
» Level 2: Database backup mode using 1+1 redundancy mode.
» Level 3: The data is saved to a disk array in RAID1 mode
Store mobility and service data for every subscriber
Contain the Center Authentication(AuC) functionality
IPLOOK's compact EPC also called "IKEPC500 series", it combines MME, SGW, PGW, HSS, PCRF, IMS and DRA network elements in one X86 COTS platform what are 100% 3GPP compliant, and each of them can support all standard interfaces defined by 3GPP.
The IKEPC500 series consists of IKEPC 510 and IKEPC 520, using a unified EMS (Element Management System) to
reduce OPEX.
The IKEPC500 series can also be deployed in a centralized cloud or at the network edge, allowing a broad range of deployment scenarios.
Mobility Management Entity(MME) is a key component of the standards-defined Evolved Pack Core (EPC) for LTE. It provides mobility session management for the LTE network and supports subscriber authentication, roaming and handovers to other networks.
SGW(Serving Gateway)
The SGW node handles the user data traffic, but isn' t responsible for the signaling data used. It transports IP data from UE's to the LTE Core Network. The SGW also routes incoming and outgoing IP packets for better system collaboration and serves as an anchor for the UE when it moves from one eNodeB to another.
PGW (PDN Gateway)
PGW is the network node that connects the EPC to external IP networks. What the PGW does is that it routes packets to and from external IP networks. Beyond that, it also allocates an IP address to all UEs and enforces different policies regarding IP user traffic such as packet filtering.
Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF), is the part of the Evolved Packet Core (EPC) that supports service data flow detection, policy enforcement and flow-based charging. It offers a comprehensive solution that enables a new generation service provider to offer multiple use cases that allow them to better control their services and align their revenue with their resources.
Evolved Packet Data Gateway (ePDG), a vital role in Wi-Fi Calling (VoWiFi), enables mobile operators to securely connect untrusted non-3GPP IP access networks to trusted 3GPP E-UTRAN/EPC networks. It establishes IPSec tunnels using information obtained from the 3GPP AAA process, to ensure secure communication, the network security and internet working control.
By bridging Wi-Fi access points and mobile networks, IPLOOK ePDG helps expand wireless network coverage and offload traffic from congested cellular networks.
