BURLINGTON, Mass. -- Acme Packet®, the leader in session border control solutions, today announced that Telefónica del Perú selected Acme Packet’s Net-Net® session border controllers (SBCs) for its new SIP-based communication services. The Net-Net SBCs are currently deployed in the network to support Cabiphone, a VoIP service for prepaid international long distance calls at Internet cafes and are currently in field trials for Speedyphone, a residential and SOHO VoIP service.

Acme Packet’s Net-Net SBCs are used for hosted NAT traversal, which enables Telefónica del Perú to maximize its service reach for the new communication offerings without impacting the customer premise. Telefónica’s service infrastructure is secured with topology hiding, access control and denial of service (DoS) attack prevention features. Showcasing the rich multiservice feature set of the Net-Net platforms, Telefónica del Peru is using Acme Packet’s SBCs for multiple projects.

“We chose Acme Packet as its SBCs excelled in every lab test and delivered the necessary features for a successful launch of our VoIP services,” said Carlos Flores, Manager for Customer Engineering and New Services at Telefónica del Perú. “The configuration flexibility that enabled Acme Packet to quickly prove interoperability with our Huawei and Alcatel VoIP equipment allowed us to quickly bring new services to market.”

“Telefónica del Perú is using Acme Packet’s Net-Net SBCs in their network to solve security, quality and service reach challenges across a variety of services and applications,” stated Andy Ory, president and CEO of Acme Packet. “Cabiphone and Speedyphone represent economical and innovative communication services for TdP’s customers.”
