Partners

VoIP & Softswitch Solutions Partners

Whether it is MGCP, SIP or H.248, interoperability with soft switches is more than having a standards based interface. There are specific applications and features unique to every soft switch that access must support. Zhone partners with the leading suppliers of soft switches to test and certify interoperability, switch-by-switch and even model-by-model. If it requires additional code in MALC, or interface code for MALC in the soft switch, it becomes part of the interoperability process as technology partners to ensure a complete service solution for VoIP.
