Product Overview |
|
|
|
The SignalPath™ 230
(SP230) is an advanced signaling protocol
converter designed to facilitate interoperability
between incompatible communication networks.
The SP230 enables a seamless interface between
in-band and out-of-band networks, and between
out-of-band networks and other out-of-band
networks.
Different types of telephony
communication protocols, both in-band and
out-of-band, circuit-switched or packet,
exist globally. In fact, there could be
as many as six or seven protocols in use
within one network. The SP230 breaks down
the communication barriers presented by
these different protocols and enables the
flow of information across any network.
Not only can you increase
your potential to connect to a larger portion
of the world market, but you can also eliminate
charges you may be currently paying to
one or more companies for network connections.
This means more revenue in your corporate
pocket. |
