Guide to Softswitch Technology

Switch to the new generation of networks with softswitch systems


Softswitch systems replace the traditional circuit switch with a softswitch, which combines generic hardware with open-standard hardware. The networks that use softswitch technology belong to a group known as next generation networks (NGNs). Softswitch technologies separate the call processing from the physical switching handled by media gateways (MGs), which allows a common software platform to handle multiple functions.

The flexibility and scalability of softswitch networks allows vendors to specialize in one area. The roll-out strategy indicates a slow progression from time division multiplexing (TDM) technology to softswitch technology in the US, but international leaders offer the technology worldwide. With a softswitch network you can:

1. Offer your clients a carrier-grade softswitch VoIP, which stands for Voice over Internet Protocol.

2. Use softswitch technology providers to create custom solutions for your business.

3. Connect to an SIP softswitch to take advantage of softswitch technology without installing your own system.

Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Deliver carrier-grade VoIP service with a VoIP softswitch A softswitch manufacturer specializing in softswitch VoIP helps integrate the new technology seamlessly. Some manufacturers offer a scalable option and the ability to cross multiple Internet protocol (IP) networks. Look for companies that offer comprehensive VoIP conversion.

I recommend:  Squire Technologies offers the SVI_C4 Class 4 Softswitch with deployment options for carrier and enterprise markets. The powerful signaling engine comes with optional add-ons to meet your business needs. VoipSwitch Inc., an application developer, provides a quick tour of their softswitch solutions. Their program merges SIP registrar, SIP proxy, SMS gateway and supported protocol.

Trust the experts to create your soft switch solution Global leaders in softswitch technology offer an all-in-one solution, including software, hardware and installation. Most softswitch technology providers work with multiple business models to create the solutions to move your business into new technology.

I recommend:  IPsmarx Softswitch Solution provides a turnkey solution built to your specific needs to business owners. Customize the softswitch options, allow for scalability and get ongoing support from the company. Software systems from Aricent target Class 4 and 5 replacement markets for mobile and fixed networks. The company provides softswitch solutions for voice, video and data.

Route your network through a session initiation protocol (SIP) soft switch Some companies don't want to install a softswitch system in their own network. Whether it is the upfront cost or the slow progression to softswitch technology, you may prefer to route your telecom functions through an SIP softswitch provider.

I recommend:  Download or watch a flash presentation of the services available from PortaSIP, which provides routing services for small and large packet voice networks. 8x8, Inc. offers Packet8 Virtual Trunking, which allows you to use your current system with an integrated access device (IAD) to connect you to their SIP softswitch.
