VOIP & DSL November 11, 1998 HERNDON, Va--(BUSINESS WIRE)Pulsecom, an industry leader in the development of digital subscriber line (DSL) technologies, and IPAXS Corp., a carrier-class, IP telephony gateway manufacturer, Tuesday announced they have entered into a joint marketing agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, the two companies will market a solution that combines Pulsecom's WavePacer DSL Solutions with IPAXS' OmniAXS VoiceHUB, OmniAXS family of gateway switches and OmniAXS Gatekeeper software. The resulting combination of the two companies' technologies will allow service providers to deliver voice over their existing data networks, offering this as an integrated DSL service to their end-user customers. Pulsecom and IPAXS are currently conducting interoperability and integration testing of their respective products to establish the combined voice-over-IP -- or VOIP -- solution. The VOIP capability was demonstrated successfully by the two companies in Pulsecom's booth at the Networld+Interop show in Atlanta several weeks ago. VOIP is a particularly attractive application for a service provider's business customers. These customers can achieve significant cost savings by enabling their telecommuters, remote offices and international offices to make voice calls over their data network. They can also benefit from moving their voice traffic off of the PSTN to further leverage their existing data infrastructure. Greg Howard, director of service provider programs at Infonetics Research in San Jose, Calif., confirmed that VOIP is an appealing addition to many service providers' portfolios. "Service providers are differentiating by leveraging their existing data networks to offer voice services and they are seeing increasing interest from their user community in voice-over-IP based applications," said Howard. "Pulsecom and IPAXS are on track in their plan to provide a solution that will allow these providers to deliver VOIP as part of their newer xDSL offerings." "By adding VOIP to their portfolio of service offerings, service providers can extend their market reach and increase their profits substantially," said Sassan Babaie, vice president of marketing for Pulsecom. "The combined Pulsecom/IPAXS VOIP solution will allow these providers to bring this new value-added service to market quickly and cost effectively." "Service providers are looking for a reliable, end-to-end solution for delivery of VOIP services to their customers," said Mohsen Behnam, president and chief executive officer of IPAXS. "The combination of our OmniAXS products and Pulsecom's WavePacer DSL Solutions, both of which have been proven in a number of trials and deployments, meet these customers' rigorous criteria." IPAXS (www.ipaxs.com) manufactures, markets and installs carrier-class, IP telephony gateways. The OmniAXS Gateway Switch and OmniAXS VoiceHUB offer carrier-class port densities that support all modes of call origination and termination and include an integrated telephone switch. Pulsecom (www.pulse.com) supplies communications access solutions to telephone companies, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), and Network Access Providers (NAPs) worldwide. Pulsecom's extensive product line ranges from Digital Loop Carrier (DLC) to high-speed Internet and broadband access solutions. More than 8 million voice and data access lines are in operation using Pulsecom equipment. Pulsecom is a member of the ADSL Forum, ATM Forum, the ITU-T and the UAWG. Pulsecom is an ISO 9001-registered firm with headquarters in Herndon, and regional offices throughout the world.
