Data Types

The NAMS Firefly® is designed to handle multiple data types. At this time, the NAMS Firefly® accepts the following data types:

  • AMADNS – GR-1343-CORE
  • Billing AMA Format (BAF) – GR-1100-CORE
  • AMATPS – GR-385-CORE
  • EMI – Exchange Message Interface
  • Telcordia AMA – 297-1001-830
  • SS7 – Signalling System No. 7
  • SIP – Session Initiation Protocol H.323
  • UMTS – 3GPP TS 32.215 version 4.2.1
  • LTE – Long-Term Evolution
  • OCC – UCS 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13

As technologies evolve, and standards change (i.e, LTE as it evolves to 5G), NAMS Firefly® is flexible enough, and robust enough, to handle any changes and incorporate them quickly, and timely, into our system; we understand time is money!
