/in /by

Alliance With Distributor Pulse Incorporated, and a new “Peace-of-Mind” Customer Program for Services Providers to be Unveiled at ITEXPO

 

(Los Angeles, California – ITEXPO West 2009) September 2, 2009:  TelcoBridges Inc., the preferred hardware and software supplier for telecom system integrators, solution developers and service providers today announced its most recent news for ITEXPO West 2009, taking place this week at the Los Angeles Convention Center.  Following up yesterday’s launch of the TelcoBridges real-time monitoring solutions for LBS solution developers, TelcoBridges today announced its plans to help service providers deploy next-generation media gateways through a new North American distribution partner and a new customer program.

TelcoBridges Partners with Dynamic US-based Value Added Distributor – Pulse, Inc.:
With eight offices nationwide and a staff of technical experts and engineering personnel, Pulse, Inc. provides carrier-grade VoIP and Media Gateway solutions to carriers and enterprises around the globe.  Pulse has earned its reputation for helping customers leverage technology to enhance their competitive positioning, while minimizing their telecommunications costs.  As TelcoBridges’ first North American Value Added Distributor, Pulse will provide installation services and 24×7 technical support for joint customers.

“We’re adding TelcoBridges’ media gateways to our portfolio because they deliver the industry’s highest port density; they require the lowest power consumption; and they feature the lowest overall operating costs of any media gateway in a 1U form factor,” said Salvatore Costantino, President of Pulse, Inc.  “This combination of performance and efficiency is ideal in today’s economy, and we’re looking forward to sharing TelcoBridges’ technology with our customers.”

“Pulse is a progressive value-added reseller who understands the technical challenges of integrating next generation platforms with existing network infrastructure,” said Bill Kelly, Director of Partner Alliances at TelcoBridges. “Pulse’s focus on the latest hardware and software solutions for the service provider community fits perfectly with TelcoBridges’ approach of providing energy efficient solutions that save money, without compromising on performance.”

For more information on the Pulse/TelcoBridges Alliance, please visit: http://www.pulsewan.com/telcobridges/.

New Customer Program for Service Providers:
TelcoBridges also announced a new customer program that helps service providers benefit from the carrier-grade features and energy-efficient savings offered by TelcoBridges’ award winning media gateway solutions.  This program highlights six key building blocks that set the next generation Tmedia family apart from legacy media gateways.  It also ensures a worry-free experience from installation and configuration, and it recognizes TelcoBridges’ accountability to a Green ICT Industry.

This new program includes financial incentives for service providers to recycle equipment replaced with Tmedia.  As part of this program, TelcoBridges takes the responsibility to correctly dispose of replaced equipment, and TelcoBridges is also paying service providers to do it.

“As the economy begins to turn around, service providers are looking for initiatives that will allow them to generate revenues from new services and save from operational and environmental efficiencies,” said Danny P. Blouin, vice president of marketing for TelcoBridges.  “This new program sets the benchmark for media gateways, and makes it easier for service providers to leverage Tmedia’s benefits.  We invite service providers worldwide to contact us, or one of our certified partners, to learn more about Tmedia’s next-generation features, and to see how it differs from anything else in the industry today.”

TelcoBridges Expands its Tmonitor Product Line for Service Providers Seeking to Deploy Network Monitoring, Lawful Intercept & Location-Based Services

/in /by

TelcoBridges Announces the New Tmonitor TM2000 and TM3000 Real Time, High-Density Network Monitoring Solutions

 

(Los Angeles, California – ITEXPO West 2009) September 1, 2009:  TelcoBridges Inc., the preferred hardware and software supplier for telecom system integrators, solution developers and service providers, today announced the launch of its new Tmonitor TM2000™ and Tmonitor TM3000™ real time network monitoring devices, which detect, filter, and record all signaling and voice traffic, enabling solutions developers to develop next-generation network monitoring, lawful intercept and location-based services (LBS) applications.

Each new offering builds upon the high-capacity, non-intrusive capabilities of TelcoBridges’ Tmonitor TM1000 platform, with full-duplex monitoring, filtering, and analysis of network traffic, such as SS7 or ISDN signaling at line speed.

The new TM2000 quadruples the data capture capacity of the TM1000 (increasing the number of HDLC controllers from 512 to 2048), while maintaining the ability to monitor up to 64 T1/E1/J1 as with the TM1000
The TM3000 is TelcoBridges’ highest capacity offering, with OC3/STM-1 support in place of T1/E1/J1 connections, as well as dedicated voice-recording capacity.  Multiple TM2000 or TM3000 devices can be clustered together in one or more facilities to provide unlimited scalability

Unlike software-based solutions running on the core network fabric, Tmonitor devices impose no additional traffic or load in order to capture pertinent data.  And unlike hardware probes, the Tmonitor devices act in a stealthy manner, without introducing latency or altering the stream of communications on the network.

Each of TelcoBridges’ Tmonitor solutions provides a big-picture view of the network, helping service providers meet operational and regulatory requirements, while enabling them to monetize the data generated by activity on their networks.  Tmonitor solutions address three specific markets:

Network Monitoring:
The Tmonitor family helps service providers continuously monitor their networks to meet regulatory requirements and customer expectations for capacity and responsiveness.  They also support applications such as mobile network optimization, call record reconciliation, fraud detection, and roaming subscriber detection & capture.  All Tmonitor solutions support multi-vendor environments, by tapping into the network communications trunks instead of the underlying hardware.

Lawful Intercept:
Lawful intercept activities, such as wiretapping, are legal requirements mandated by the government.  Such compliance has increased the cost of network operations without delivering upside to the provider.  Software or hardware deployed on a subset of a network consumes resources normally dedicated to call connection and control.  But TelcoBridges’ Tmonitor solutions enable service providers to tap into networks without being noticed by the target, to address lawful intercept requirements without causing latency, signal disruption, or affecting overall system performance.

Location-Based Services:
While the technologies that support LBS were initially put in place to support E-911 regulations in the US, TelcoBridges’ Tmonitor devices enable mobile service providers to further monetize the activity of their subscribers.

TelcoBridges enables service providers to capture, aggregate, and analyze the flood of data crossing their networks in real-time, by using voice and SMS signaling data to triangulate the position of thousands of users at the same time, without the need to send additional requests over the network.  This enables the development of new “on-deck” applications, or the sale of data to third-party application developers, without impacting performance or quality of service to the customers.  Specific LBS applications that can be developed with Tmonitor devices include real-time road traffic reports; location-specific advertising; location-specific SMS search and customer service; vehicle insurance compliance applications; and a host of social networking applications.

“One of our mobile carrier customers, with a subscriber base of 15 million users, has deployed our Tmonitor technology to capture signaling traffic and handset positional data, which they have monetized, by sharing it with a third-party LBS application provider,” said Danny P. Blouin, TelcoBridges’ VP of Marketing.  “Our newest monitoring solutions round out our product line, enhancing the TelcoBridges value proposition for solutions developers and mobile operators around the globe.”

/in /by

TelcoBridges’ “GREEN IT Architecture” Provides the Industry’s Greatest Balance of Performance, Density, Space Savings and Power Efficiency

 

Montreal, Canada, May 6th, 2009: TelcoBridges™, the preferred hardware and software supplier for telecom system integrators and solution developers, today announced the formal launch of its TCOGreen program, which illustrates how TelcoBridges’ Green IT Architecture helps companies save energy, reduce their carbon footprints, and decrease the TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of their communications solutions.

TelcoBridges’ TCOGreen program helps telecom service providers and operators learn how to significantly reduce the TCO and Carbon footprint of their network, while enhancing capacity and capabilities.  The TCOGreen program consists of:

* A detailed TCOGreen White Paper entitled: “The Green Total Cost of Ownership”

* A Webinar Series – scheduled for June 3-4, at convenient times for both the North American and Asian markets

* An extensive face-to-face campaign with partners and prospects at CommunicAsia, June 16th -19th in Singapore (booth # 5D4-01)

* And two free, online tools to help organizations understand how energy and co-location costs impact their TCO.  These new online tools are also available at: www.telcobridges.com

Additional details on the TCOGreen program can be found at www.telcobridges/tcogreen.

“Today’s economic conditions and environmental concerns force everyone to look at new solutions to improve their bottom line and reduce their impact on the environment,” states Danny Paul Blouin, VP of Marketing for TelcoBridges.  “The telecom industry can make a difference by operating more efficiently, and by eliminating unnecessary energy consumption in data centers.  Our Green IT Architecture helps companies reduce their costs by becoming more energy efficient, without compromising on performance.”

The complete story describing TelcoBridges TCOGreen program is explained in TelcoBridges’ recent TCOGreen White Paper.  It discusses how the rise of co-location services among solutions providers places a new and greater emphasis on saving both space and energy in data centers.  It also shares specific comparisons between Tmedia and competitive offerings, illustrating how Tmedia’s modular and scalable architecture optimizes resources, reduces heat emissions, and minimizes space and energy requirements, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership.

Telecommunications solutions developers, systems integrators, and services providers are encouraged to use the online TmediaTM Configuration Tool and TCOGreen Tool™ at: www.telcobridges.com/tcogreen, to see first-hand, how the Tmedia product line can enhance efficiency, reduce space and energy costs, and lower the total cost of ownership of their telecommunications solutions.
