WOBURN, Mass. -- Acme Packet(TM) today unveiled its Net-Net(TM) family of Session Aware Networking(TM) products for service providers delivering premium interactive communications across multiple IP networks. Session Aware Networking is the industry's first architecture that tightly integrates session routing and media control to satisfy critical security, SLA assurance, revenue and profit protection and law enforcement requirements for voice, video and multimedia communications. Session Aware Networking enables high-quality, end-to-end interactive communications across multiple service provider and enterprise IP networks - just like a voice call today spans multiple circuit-switched local and long distance networks in the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). It overcomes the routing and media control deficiencies of today's IP networks by integrating four functional elements that interact and share information dynamically to make the network session-aware. "Service providers today are using IP networks for Internet offload and VoIP trunking to lower transport costs, yet the real promise of - and profits from - convergence lie in the end-to-end delivery of interactive communications and it's integration with data," commented Andy Ory, president and CEO, Acme Packet. "Using Acme Packet's Net-Net, service providers can interconnect disparate 'islands' of IP networks - with innovative functionality and unparalleled performance - for the optimal delivery of high-value communications."
