BroadSoft is working with Romania's Atlas Telecom to deliver residential VOIP over a fixed-wireless telecoms network
May 16, 2006
STOCKHOLM -- BroadSoft Inc, the leading provider of VoIP application software, today announced that it is working with Romania's Atlas Telecom to deliver residential VoIP over a fixed-wireless telecoms network using DECT cordless technology. The innovative combination of DECT fixed-wireless infrastructure and the BroadWorks VoIP application platform will enable customers across the country to experience next generation call functionality using proven and affordable technology.
Atlas Telecom is using the SIP-based BroadWorks VoIP application platform in tandem with Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) wireless nodes and cordless phones and 802.11 broadband technology to deliver primary line services and premium telephony features to residential and business consumers. The DECT technology delivers the signal up to 200 meters from a base station, each of which is deployed on lamp posts (with approximately 4200 per city planned) to deliver VoIP services. The solution, combining proven technologies, is the first of its kind worldwide and leapfrogs existing infrastructure constraints to deliver the latest features throughout Romania.
"We selected the BroadWorks residential VoIP application platform because it offers the greatest scalability so we can ultimately serve hundreds of thousands of users; it offers a full range of enhanced features that will meet the needs of our users; and it combines the DECT and SIP technologies intelligently to provide the only configuration of its kind in existence," said Pompiliu Tripa, President of Atlas Telecom Eastern Europe. "In a unique marriage of proven technologies, we are able to both extend the useful life of and continue to extract value from the current infrastructure."
