Jazztel deploys Acme Packet SBCs to power hosted IP PBX

 

Acme Packet announced that Jazztel, a telecommunications
and data transmission carrier with its own infrastructure in Spain, has
deployed Acme Packet Net-Net 4500 session border controllers (SBCs) to host IP
PBX services for business customers, provide international wholesale peering
services and in-country IP interconnects.

 

Jazztel offers voice and data services to residential and
business customers in Spain. Jazztel replaced legacy circuit-switched
infrastructure with Acme Packet products as they scaled their IP communication
service offerings.

 

In the twelve years we have been in operation, we have
progressively consolidated and expanded our service offering to now include
wholesale VoIP, Internet, broadband and carrier’s carrier interconnects,” said
Antonio Montero, network director at Jazztel.

 

We chose Acme Packet
products for their flexibility to eliminate a wide variety of interoperability
issues with softswitches and gateways used by our peering customers and with
endpoints. As a result, we have also been able to provision peering service
providers and business VoIP customers much faster,” Montero added.

 

After years of offering small business VoIP services,
Jazztel expanded their capabilities to support large enterprises through hosted
IP PBX environments, replacing traditional time-division multiplexing (TDM)
switches and converged TDM/IP media gateways under softswitch control with Acme
Packet products in order to scale their business VoIP services.

 

Jazztel has taken advantage of the latest IP
communication technology and successfully monetized this investment across
several business models,” said Dino Di Palma, senior vice president of
worldwide sales and business development, Acme Packet.

 

Acme Packet recently announced that Norwegian
communications service provider Altibox has deployed
Acme Packet‘s Net-Net 4500 Session Director (SD) session border controllers
(SBCs) as part of its re-designed residential VoIP service.

 

The SBCs are deployed at access and interconnect borders,
and extend the reach of Altibox’s services by resolving signaling
inconsistencies that exist among the various endpoints used by Altibox
subscribers.
