That can be discussed a while since there is no definition, I have had been offered directs as SIM solutions, and yes, that could be considered directs since it is, you know, direct via the operator if you stretch it a bit.ĭirects is everything that goes via an operator basically but 0 hop is only direct to the operator who owns the end-user. So what are the definition of 0 hops or "directs"? SMS messaging was used for the first time on 3 December 1992, Most aggregators are indeed not 48 years old and also, it sure takes a lot longer to sign an operator when you are new to the business. Should we say an average of 3 months in total (very generous I might add, taking negotiating and locating the right person to speak with, meetings and so on) It takes more than 48 years for one person to make 200 deals if you don't do anything other than chasing operators? and however good your platform may be, it will take time, more time then you anticipated, mapping error codes, window size, TON/NPI settings, the list goes on. And when that is all done you need to connect. If you ever have had an agreement signed with an Operator then you know, generally it takes time and both you and the Operators legal departments have a lot to say. Of course, I am not talking about Operators themselves with the "gentleman agreements" amongst each other, nur HUBS. I have heard excessively many saying that they have 200+ direct connections but, to be honest, then you also have 200+ contracts signed by operators laying around. How many hear this every week?įirst, there are around 800 Networks in the world, no one, I mean no one is directly connected to all of them. There is so much talk about 0 hop routes, Client may say"We only use 0 hop Routes" or "I need the list of 0 hops that you offer".
