Ulticom and CableMatrix Partner to Deliver IP Telephony Services Over Broadband Networks

At the GLOBALCOMM trade show, Ulticom®, Inc. (NASDAQ: ULCM), a leading provider of network signaling solutions, and CableMatrix, a leading provider of Quality of Service (QoS) policy management solutions, today announced a partnership to help ease the deployment of premium IMS-based services. Their joint solution, combining Ulticom's Signalware and CableMatrix's On Demand Service Platform (ODSP), allows broadband service providers to deliver IP telephony services with guaranteed QoS.

Incorporating a specialized SIP proxy server based on Signalware SIP and Diameter products, the solution offers broadband service providers the ability to deliver high-resolution video calling or crystal clear voice by injecting the appropriate QoS commands via CableMatrix's ODSP platform. The companies' products are compatible with the IMS standardization activities and are applicable to both wired and wireless networks.

Telecom networks have long used policy management applications to prioritize traffic flow and to maintain QoS to their subscribers. As cable and other broadband service providers start to roll out premium services combining voice, data and video, it becomes increasingly important for them to be able to manage the flow of data across their networks. CableMatrix's QoS policy management solutions, using Ulticom's Signalware, enable broadband service providers to deploy toll-quality IP telephony while monitoring subscriber usage, managing network resources, and matching network growth to revenue. The advantage of the combined solution is that broadband service providers are now able to set priorities for how traffic flows across their networks, while at the same time being able to offer premium services to subscribers willing to pay for top priority.

"The successful delivery of today's new, media-rich applications and services is about more than just raw bandwidth," said Jay Malin, vice president of business development at CableMatrix. "Service providers who want to offer truly differentiated services need granular QoS to guarantee a satisfying customer experience. CableMatrix's high-availability policy decision function, in combination with Ulticom's Signalware SIP and Diameter protocol software, presents service providers with a robust, scalable solution to deliver premium SIP services on behalf of authorized IMS applications."

"This partnership with CableMatrix brings Ulticom's proven reliability of telecom signaling to a new segment of the global network: cable and broadband services," said Osman Duman, senior vice president and CMO, Ulticom. "Our combined solution allows broadband service providers to maximize subscriber quality of experience while easily gaining incremental ARPU, all while maximizing investments in their IP network architecture."

A demonstration of the technology will be on display in the Ulticom booth (Booth 27067) at the GLOBALCOMM trade show, being held this week in Chicago.
