TDSOFT's Capabilities Highlighted!!
I just saw this come out. While it doesn't speak of Com21's efforts with TDSoft, it does speak to TDSoft's capabilities and potentials. Com21 should be able to take advantage of these potentials as their relationship with TDSoft grows. Very important is the extensive testing TDSoft has done with "15 different switches" "in over 25 countries". Looks like it will be a very fruitful partnership.

Telmax Communications Joins Tdsoft Communicationsøô VoNGA Partner Program Partnership Targets Delivering Voice Over DSL Solution Fremont, Calif., March 10, 2000 - Telmax Communications Corporation, a global provider of single-pair Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) access solutions, and Tdsoft Communications Ltd., a world leader in Voice Over Next Generation Access (VoNGA) solutions for the telecommunications industry, announced today that Telmax Communications has joined Tdsoftøôs VoNGA partner program. The combined Voice over DSL (VoDSL) solution, using the Tdsoft VoNGATE(tm) Voice Access Gateway and Telmax Xiad2000 Integrated Access Device (IAD), allows small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), SOHOs, and high-end residential customers to benefit from multiline voice services and high-speed data over a single pair. Both companies will conduct interoperability testing to ensure the delivery of voice services over DSL broadband infrastructures, using the V5.2 standard, to incumbent telephone companies, new competitive carriers and access providers. The V5.2 standard, which specifies an open interface for access network systems including POTS and ISDN with dynamic bandwidth allocation and protection, was approved by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). The Telmax Xiad2000 Residential Gateway is a next generation splitterless VoDSL residential/SOHO gateway that provides øáfull rateø© ADSL high-speed data transport in addition to four toll-quality øáderivedø© POTS lines over a single copper pair, thereby linking branch offices, home offices and individual subscribers to their Network Service Providers (NSPs). Using industry-standard Discreet Multi-Tone (DMT) technology, the Xiad2000 supports the ANSI T1.413 issue 2 standard, TR 57 and TR909. Upstream and downstream data rates are dynamically allocated across the DMT spectrum to minimize noise and maximize service reliability. Each session automatically reconfigures the rate to attain optimal communication. VoNGATE(tm), Tdsoftøôs versatile voice access gateway system allows telecom providers to offer wireline-quality voice services over next-generation access (NGA) networks such as DSL, cable or wireless. Capable of supporting any combination of ATM, IP and TDM access technologies while fully leveraging existing PSTN switch equipment, VoNGATE(tm) allows flexible system deployment and facilitates future network expansion. VoNGATE(tm) is compatible with voice switches supporting standard V5.2, GR-303, TR 008, CAS or proprietary signaling interfaces. According to Telmax Communicationsøô Vice President of Marketing Franchesca Walker, øáThe Xiad2000 residential/SOHO gateway and Tdsoftøôs VoNGATE(tm) Voice Access Gateway allow service providers to offer their customers voice, with full CLASS services, in addition to high-speed ADSL data service, at a lower cost. This solution cuts an NSPøôs time-to-market and enables new revenue-increasing services.ø© øáWe take pride in having Telmax join our VoNGA partner program,ø© said Gil Eyal, VP of Marketing and Sales at Tdsoft. øáThe combined broadband access solution from Telmax and Tdsoft provides the ultimate carrier class VoDSL solution for incumbent operators and new competitive operators and enables them to expand their markets.ø© About Tdsoft Communications Tdsoft is a leading provider of Voice over Next Generation Access (VoNGA) solutions for the telecommunications industry.
