F5
Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:FFIV),
the global leader in Application Delivery Networking (ADN), today
announced that it will participate in several conference sessions and
host a booth as a Bronze sponsor of the LTE
World Summit 2012, taking place May 22-24 at the International

F5 will highlight several LTE solutions, including F5 Traffix products

reflect the company's added value as an expert vendor in essential core
network services. Solutions such as intelligent traffic steering
and Diameter routing in both the data and signaling planes
illustrate how F5's service provider solutions deliver optimal network
resource management and performance.
"We are very pleased that F5 is contributing its knowledge and years of
real-world expertise with IP-based applications, data, and signaling in
LTE networks to the LTE World Summit, which has grown exponentially this
year as network rollouts are on the rise worldwide," said Giles
Cummings, Events Director at Informa.
"Handling the explosion of mobile data is a key concern for LTE's
operational success."
"As operators deploy LTE across their footprints and migrate their
installed base users to LTE devices, they must be ready for the
resulting challenges," said Ben Volkow, VP of Product Development at F5
Networks. "Few network infrastructure vendors understand the
complexities related to both the data and signaling planes. Given our
expertise in IP and Diameter signaling, we're excited to play an active
role at this event to help educate and assist operators in successfully
overcoming the challenges related to LTE."
