SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Veraz Networks has announced the launch of its ControlSwitch Release 6.0. To be demonstrated at Supercomm, the new product will feature a programmable subscriber services management subsystem with common residential and SOHO service sets built from customizable subscriber service building blocks. The Veraz ControlSwitch is the only widely-deployed carrier softswitch and service delivery platform that can offer on-the-fly programmability for both network services as well as subscriber services.

With its layered and distributed subsystem architecture design and multi-protocol signaling mediation, the centrally managed and fully programmable ControlSwitch 6.0 includes customizable subscriber service building blocks that can be made accessible across any access network and user device via a multi-protocol access signaling mediation tier.

Existing network investments can be preserved while leveraging the innovation and flexibility of carrier-grade next generation networks and services provided by and accessed via the ControlSwitch. This is significant because of the increased importance of harmonizing a service provider’s TDM and IP networks to optimize network efficiency and maximize service revenue generation.

“Today, service providers of all sizes are looking for solution vendors that can help them protect their existing TDM investments while providing a clear path to new revenue streams and next-generation, IP-based architectures,” said Brian Partridge, senior analyst, The Yankee Group. “The multi-tier programmability of the new ControlSwitch enhancements position Veraz Networks well to meet these needs.”
