VocalData and SS8 Interoperate for CALEA Requirements

VocalData has enhanced the lawful intercept compliance capabilities of its VOISS voice application server by providing interoperability with SS8 Networks' Xcipio SSDF platform. Under terms of the Communications Assistance to Law Enforcement Act, (CALEA), telecom service providers are required to ensure that their equipment, facilities and services comply with authorized electronic surveillance. Previously, VocalData's service provider customers could comply with CALEA by interfacing with the PSTN via a Class 5 switch. The interoperability with SS8 enables the traffic to stay in the IP domain.


Separately, VocalData announced deployments of its VOISS application server with US Sonet and IT Partners. US Sonet is an ISP in Illinois that is using VocalData's application server to offer a bundle of high-speed Internet, on-line gaming, local and long-distance voice, and video - using FTTH access. IT Partners is a systems integrator in Dallas, Texas, offering hosted PBX solutions.
