Swisscom Deploys Sylantro

BERN, Switzerland -- Swisscom, the leading telecommunications company in Switzerland, and Sylantro Systems Corp., the leading supplier of feature servers for hosted VoIP services in carrier networks, today announced an enhanced relationship that will enable Swisscom’s transition to an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) network, planned to launch throughout Switzerland in early 2008. Sylantro’s Synergy Application Feature Server will be deployed and integrated into Swisscom’s IMS network infrastructure, providing advanced telephony services and first line replacement.

As Swisscom prepares for major developments on residential VoIP services over the next year, the company is migrating to IMS to enable advanced fixed and mobile services based on a converged network infrastructure.

“Sylantro’s Application Feature Server will be deployed and integrated into the Ericsson IMS network we selected, which will provide value-added services such as residential VoIP to our customers,” said Wolfgang Weber, CTO Mobile, Swisscom. “Swisscom has had a very positive and successful partnership with Sylantro over the last two years and we determined that Sylantro was the best solution for the transition to the new IMS infrastructure. We were impressed with Sylantro’s track record in integrating the Synergy platform with the widest range of IMS core network systems.”
