With the explosion in the IoT devices and rise in adoption of 5G, edge computing and cloud native

network functions the need for speed, quality and monetization is non-negotiable. The connectivity

fabric will be laid out by the ubiquitous WiFi, outdoors and indoors, both. While people and

businesses connect to devices, to each other and to the future, wireless connectivity becomes the

foundation of digital society and WiFi 6 specifically. And STL have been a major player in the arena of

WiFi (patented technology), with 40+ customers across the globe and powering thousands of

hotspots.

We completely get that. Our STL dWiFi – an end to end WiFi Platform – is a deeply engineered WiFi

response to a wide spectrum of market challenges. STL dWiFi empowers Telcos to leverage carrier-

grade WiFi as an integral part of their heterogeneous network services. It not only improves spectral

e�ciency but also ups the monetization game along with host of next gen services for CSPs.

Powered by DevOps, Analytics, Web-scale, Network Software (DAWN), the future-native STL WiFi6

platform enables Telcos to provide wide range of innovative o�erings and create di�erentiating

services across segments such as enterprise, retail, education, hospitality and public to generate new

revenue streams.

The STL WAG solution enables access for non-3GPP access towards EPC for both trusted / untrusted

networks. It enables mobile operators to extend wireless service coverage, reduce the load on the macro

wireless network, and make use of existing backhaul infrastructure to reduce the cost of

carrying wireless calls.

.

STL has two solutions within the WAG family of products:

ePDG (Evolved Packet Data Gateway)

TWAG (Trusted Wireless Access Gateway)

.

STL o�ers app store for a WiFi access point that works on the concept of an open eco-system. It has

developer-friendly SDKs and policies, attracting developers to create apps for our WiFi platform

providing new and innovative applications to the end customers. The applications that our App Store

o�ers are tested for their performance and trusted as those are verified against our privacy policies.

STL o�ers apps in the SaaS (Software as a Service) model, ensuring enhanced customer experiences.)

STL WiFi Open API and SDK enables 3rd party developers to develop and publish apps on STL WiFi

App Store. It provides several benefits such as enabling new use cases, reduces TCO through extensibility

and provide on-demand apps like SD-WAN, VPN, attendance management etc. The applications give a

possibility to infuse new functionality in the Access Points increasing the lifetime value and reducing

the TCO.

STL Next Gen Hotspot (NGH) delivers superior customer experience via transparent, automatic WiFi

connection and authentication. Manual selection of SSID and input of access credentials is not required

and is complemented by improved security (WPA2 and EAP). Operators have wide range of policy

configurations available to create a di�erentiated QoS. Also it enables inexpensive Roaming at

better coverage.

.

STL dAAA is access-agnostic, carrier-grade AAA server that competently manages the busiest of

networks and easily scales to accommodate growing business needs. It allows operators with a wider

choice, greater flexibility, and facilitates tighter product integration and addresses a wide range of access

networks. It centrally manages the authentication of subscribers, devices & authorises them for

appropriate level of service and ensures reliable accounting of usage. At present it supports 10K

concurrent sessions scalable and expandable to more than 1 million concurrent sessions.
