Three new mobility solutions were today announced by Juniper Networks® (NYSE: JNPR) that will address mobile operators' immediate need to optimize traffic and reduce complexity in their

mobile networks, while also providing a path for seamless migration from 3G to 4G and LTE networks. The new solutions are part of Juniper's "Project Falcon" initiative disclosed last October, are based on the Junos® software platform and Juniper's MX 3D Series Universal Edge Routers.

The first solution, Juniper Traffic Direct, addresses the experience and cost challenges caused by exponential growth of mobile data traffic due to smartphones, netbooks and notebooks. Juniper

Traffic Direct optimizes mobile data traffic by combining intelligent subscriber and application policies with MX 3D Series.

The second solution, Juniper Media Flow, optimizes mobile and fixed networks for fast, efficient video and rich media delivery - enabling a TV-like experience on smartphones and other mobile devices, while yielding TCO reductions for mobile operators.
 
The third solution, Juniper Mobile Core Evolution, will provide an open and secure mobile packet core to monetize 3G and 4G services on the same network..

According to Rajan Raghavan, CEO and co-founder, Ankeena Networks," The combination of skyrocketing mobile data traffic has created a critical industry need to lower the cost of operating the network while also improving the user experience. Juniper is the industry's first vendor to deliver a new traffic optimization solution that combines offload and caching for more efficient content delivery directly to mobile subscribers."
