As an increasing number of carriers deploy VoIP networks the need for direct interconnection between these networks is becoming paramount. The Essentra EX Peering Manager provides a simple and cost-effective solution for wholesale operators, clearinghouses, bilateral traffic exchange carriers, operators of NLD/ILD networks and other service provider requiring secured interconnection between disparate VoIP networks. This border element facilitates peering between SIP and/or H.323 networks by fully addressing carriers’ requirements in the areas of protocol interworking, accounting, billing, security and routing.
With full support for SIP-H.323 interworking, Essentra EX can be deployed seamlessly with any VocalTec or third-party softswitch platform. Essentra EX provides enhanced call-routing capabilities enabling the support of complex routing policies that maximize network performance and reduce transport costs in both small and large voice over packet networks.
A SIP-based service layer ensures that all service/routing logic and network topology is hidden from the networking layer, accelerating time to market and simplifying network management.
