Convedia and Netrake Integrate Media Servers and Session Controllers

Convedia and Netrake announced a partnership agreement combining Convedia's carrier-class IP media processing platforms and Netrake's session controllers for VoIP interconnection. In the integrated Convedia/Netrake solution, the Netrake nCite system will seamlessly control Convedia media server products to provide adjunct transcoding of media streams with incompatible encoding, providing a scalable, carrier-class solution that encompasses both signaling and media mediation.



Convedia media servers offer a range of media processing features, including transcoding between voice and video IP packets encoded in different formats. Convedia media servers support a broad range of codec standards - including G.711, G.723.1A, G.726, and G.729AB - with a variety of wireless voice and IP video codecs.



Session controllers are network elements that control and anchor both signaling and media across network domains and borders, performing the peering functions required for real time communications. Netrake's nCite product family provides transparent signaling protocol mediation between H.323, SIP-T and SIP networks, allowing voice and video IP messaging to be seamlessly translated between carrier-to-carrier and carrier-to-enterprise IP networks. http://www.convedia.comhttp://www.netrake.com
