InnoMedia and Cirpack Interoperate

PARIS -- InnoMedia, a leading supplier of Internet and broadband access IP telephony solutions, and Cirpack, a leading vendor of next-generation public telephony switches for telecom operators, today announced the successful completion of interoperability testing between InnoMedia's VoIP CPEs and Cirpack's Class-5 Local Exchange Switch using MGCP, NCS/PacketCable and SIP protocols.

InnoMedia's IP Phone and MTAs enable voice communications over an IP network. All are SIP and MGCP compatible, can be auto provisioned, and are simple to deploy. When used with MGCP or NCS signaling, they are managed by CIRPACK's Class-5 SoftSwitch which owns the intelligence needed to provide services and control calls. When a call is heading to or coming from outside of the operator's IP network, CIRPACK's Gateway converts voice traffic accordingly (to SS7, ISDN or ATM for instance).

This architecture enables operators to provide legacy TDM voice services as well as next generation IP telephony from the same voice switching platform, further simplifying network infrastructure and lowering CAPEX and OPEX expenditure.
