services with PSTN-like capabilities to carriers like PowerNet Global-
SAN JOSE, CA-March 8, 2005-Veraz Networks and Sylantro Systems corporation announced their proven, end-to-end packet telephony solution for carriers and service providers' next-generation networks. The end-to-end VoIP
solution is comprised of a service delivery and softswitch-based platform and the highest-compression media gateways from Veraz Networks plus hosted PBX, IP Centrex and consumer broadband VoIP applications for the most comprehensive hosted communications services solution from Sylantro. This integrated and fully-interoperable platform is already deployed with PowerNet Global Communications (PNG), an integrated communications provider.
"PNG has standardized on the Veraz and Sylantro offering for its nationwide voice network that is successfully processing 15 million minutes per month and on target to grow to 70 million minutes per month this year," said
Bernie Stevens, CEO of PowerNet Global Communications. "The Veraz/Sylantro
platform has exceeded our expectations and will be the foundation on which
PNG will grow its future business."
Both Veraz and Sylantro have proven their capabilities to provide a superior quality of service, which is confirmed in PNG's ability to generate flexible product solutions for its customer base. The Veraz and Sylantro
comprehensive and fully interoperable offering serves as an open Class 5
platform to enable multi-vendor offerings to interact effectively. As
carriers look to grow their subscriber base with new service offerings and
keep a competitive edge, leading providers of NGN solutions like Veraz and
Sylantro provide a platform to carry live traffic and new revenue-generating
services.
"This is great news for carriers that are looking for a field-proven and
end-to-end solution that is not only interoperable but also adheres to open
standards and is capable of supporting existing and next-generation protocols," said Jack Sorci, vice president of business development for Sylantro Systems. "Together, Veraz Networks and Sylantro address carriers' needs with next-generation solutions to provide new services."
Both Sylantro and Veraz Networks offer superior-quality solutions that offer reliability and scalability for next-generation networks. Sylantro's
carrier-grade applications feature server is the foundation for its hosted
PBX, IP Centrex and consumer broadband VoIP applications. Veraz's packet
telephony offerings include its ControlSwitch 5.5, a distributed softswitch
for large-scale packet migration and TDM switch replacements, and its family
of I-Gate media gateways providing one of the highest compression ratios in
the industry. With Veraz and Sylantro partnering together to deliver
integrated VoIP solutions, carriers have new opportunities to increase
revenue and compete more effectively.
"With the Veraz and Sylantro interoperable solution, our existing and new
customers can focus on generating revenue rather than network migration and
service delivery concerns," said Doug Sabella, President and CEO of Veraz
Networks. "Sylantro and Veraz will continue to drive product innovation for
years to come as two solution providers that understand the needs of the
established incumbents and greenfield carriers."
