Sprint has deployed Nortel's Internet Telephony Solution NORTEL NETWORKS: Nortel Networks Passport packet voice gateway solution goeslive in Sprint Network Internet; Telephony solution converges Sprint voice, datanetworks for savings, flexibility Tue Aug 01 06:10:00 EDT 2000 AUG 1, 2000, M2 Communications - BOSTON -- Sprint* has deployed a unique Internet Telephony solution from Nortel Networks* [NYSE/TSE: NT] that can deliver voice, data and video to Sprint customers over a single high-speed, broadband connection. Now in service throughout the Sprint network, Nortel Networks Passport* Packet Voice Gateway (PVG) bridges emerging packet (IP/ATM) data networks with traditional Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN) to enable greater network flexibility at lower cost. By using a packet-based network to switch calls, Sprint can reduce capital expenses associated with traditional telephony networks. A packet network also flattens the call-handling architecture, enabling more efficient and reliable call switching. "To provide our customers with even more services, we selected Nortel Networks to help integrate Sprint data and voice services onto a single, multi-service network," said Marty Kaplan, senior vice-president and chief technology officer, Sprint. "Nortel Networks has demonstrated commitment, leadership and support in enabling Sprint to fulfill its vision to customers of greater cost savings and value-added services." "Passport PVG brings powerful features for converging both voice and data traffic on Sprint's multi-vendor network," said Marco Pagani, vice-president, Carrier Data Networks, Nortel Networks. "Using Passport PVG, Sprint can offer customers a single, intelligent network that provides integrated voice, video and data services with virtually unlimited bandwidth." Passport PVG is available across the carrier Passport product line, including Passport 7480 and Passport 15000 VSS today, and Passport 15000 in the near future. Sprint's PVG network expansion plans include deployment of Passport 15000 in early 2001. Passport PVG is an integral part of Nortel Networks Succession* Solutions, which offer a broad range of options for building world-class Internet Telephony networks. Nortel Networks was first to market last year with Succession Solutions for transforming circuit-switched networks into packet networks, and for providing new packet networks for carriers deploying new IP services.
