RADVISION's SIP Toolkit Used by Net-2Com to Develop Innovative Wireless/IP Phones and IP Centrex System
FAIR LAWN, New Jersey, July 11, 2005 -- RADVISION (Nasdaq:RVSN) today announced that Net-2Com Corporation has used RADVISION’s award-winning SIP Toolkit to develop its new WiPCom1000 wireless Internet Protocol (IP) telephone as well as its SubCentrex IP-Centrex carrier-class softswitch.
Net-2Com uses a proprietary voice over IP (VoIP) technology to develop and distribute innovative VoIP and networking-related products for enterprise environments. Its WiPCom1000 is a unique wireless/IP phone that features built-in wireless LAN (WLAN) functionality, allowing it to be used automatically in public WLANs.
The SubCentrex carrier-class softswitch is an IP-Centrex enterprise solution that supports the conversion between Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) and the H.323 protocol, enabling end-to-end IP telephony between public switched telephone network (PSTN) users.
"By selecting the RADVISION SIP Toolkit, we realized immediate benefits, ranging from direct access to an up-to-date communication protocol to unparalleled development flexibility made possible by the multiple API layers," commented Kiyoshi Oh, CEO of Net-2Com. "With RADVISION's SIP Toolkit, our development team was able to focus on service functions rather than protocol and interoperability details, which directly resulted in faster service rollout and lower costs."
RADVISION’s SIP Toolkit is a high-performance SIP implementation that provides multiple application program interface (API) layers for optimal control and flexibility when developing new products and services. Designed from the ground up to be a powerful and highly versatile set of development tools, it addresses and simplifies the development of communications systems and devices based on SIP. Users of the SIP Toolkit can be confident that it complies with the latest IETF SIP specifications as well as key extensions.
"Net-2Com's use of our SIP Toolkit underscores the toolkit's flexibility as well as its ability to speed development of high-performance, standard-compliant products, ranging from IP phones to softswitches to multimedia servers and gateways," said Adi Paz, Sr. Director of Product Management and Marketing for RADVISION’s Technology Business Unit. "We are pleased to be selected by Net-2Com because their business model represents cutting-edge development as well as a commitment to high-quality, reliable products and services. This matches well with what RADVISION has to offer."
Because it selected the RADVISION SIP Toolkit, Net-2Com was able to quickly support a wide variety of IP services, including one-number service and presence/instant messaging (IM). In addition, selecting the industry-leading RADVISION development environment will allow Net-2Com engineers to continuously improve their product functionality and respond to customer-driven needs as they move through their product roadmaps. By taking advantage of the lower-level APIs available in the SIP Toolkit, Net-2Com engineers could enable the SubCentrex softswitch to handle sub-standard or older generation VoIP devices, providing a competitive advantage in terms of strong compatibility and interoperability with existing infrastructure and devices.
