CIRPACK and IBM Team on Packet Telephony

CIRPACK and IBM Global Services are teaming on next generation telecom voice solutions in ETSI compliant countries: Europe, Middle East, Africa, and most Asian and Latin American countries. IBM Global Services will provide the support services and systems integration expertise for CIRPACK SoftSwitch solutions enabling telecom operators to deploy new voice services while maintaining legacy services. In addition, CIRPACK has joined the IBM Service Provider Delivery Environment (SPDE) Global Partner Network, IBM's framework for rapidly linking with Service Provider's OSS, BSS and service delivery processes.


The companies said network operators prefer to deal with service companies rather than being systems integrators themselves.


CIRPACK's softswitch platfomr can host a range of high-density network interfaces (IP, ATM, TDM) and supports multiple local signaling protocol variants simultaneously (ISDN, SS7, VoIP, VoATM). It can be configured to manage voice transit services (Class-4) as well as subscriber services (Class- 5), handling up to 5 millions BHCA (Busy Hour Call Attempts), and 180,000 simultaneous voice channels over any type of legacy and packet networks.
