MWC 2014: Genband in SRD pact with NetNumber

At the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2014, Genband announced its partnership with NetNumber to integrate the TITAN centralized Signaling, Routing and Database (SRD) services platform into Genband’s portfolio to offer interconnect and IMSsolutions.

This joint architecture will evolve core telecom networks to new levels of scalability, efficiency and profitability for service providers and wholesale carriers around the globe.

Earlier, Genband and NetNumber deployed their solutions for British Telecommunications plc’s (BT) Global IP Interconnect network for UK and global wholesale customers.

Genband’s interconnect solutions seamlessly interface with NetNumber’s TITAN centralized routing and protocol interworking solutions in both IMS and non-IMS networks to enable optimal route decisions and to apply policies to ensure route quality and profitability.

BT recently deployed Genband and NetNumber solution to deliver SIP-based IP Interconnect and international direct dialing (IDD) for global tier 1 and tier 2 carriers. The deployment has since expanded across Asia and the Americas to enable BT’s customers in these regions with advanced IP Interconnect and IP Exchange (IPX) capabilities.

“NetNumber’s TITAN solution builds out the core of a carrier’s next-generation addressing and routing infrastructure and this partnership creates one of the industry’s most advanced end-to-end interconnect solutions that improves efficiencies between service providers and within networks,” said Keith Landau, President of GENBAND’s IMS Business Unit.

“The partnership between GENBAND and NetNumber addresses a key challenge network operators face today – the migration from legacy TDM to IP networking,” said Sue Rudd, director of Service Provider Analysis at Strategy Analytics. “This joint solution architecture should accelerate operators’ deployment and management of next generation networks and services.”
