Encore
Networks’ STAR Service Call Center
Solution |
| Cellular carriers
are rapidly introducing new
STAR (*) services on their networks,
using call center and IVR (Interactive
Voice Response) information
access solutions. Common call
center and IVR products have ISDN interfaces
and do not support direct connection
to the cellular, SS7 based network. More... |

| Migrating
Legacy ATM Terminals to IP Networks |
| Long distance calling
rates between North America
and Europe to Africa, Asia,
and Latin America are very expensive.
As a result, a large and lucrative
business has sprung up providing discounted
calling cards using Internet-based PSTN
toll by-pass solutions. However, the
next-generation networking equipment
used to enable the Internet-based solutions
cannot connect to the local
telephone networks in Africa, Asia,
and Latin America. More... |

| Enable
Connections Between Video Conferencing
Applications and Networks in
Overseas Markets |
| With the recent growth
in international video conferencing,
the international market is
becoming more attractive to
service vendors. Enabling ISDN-based
video equipment to connect to international
telephone networks is just one
of many opportunities beckoning enterprising
vendors. More... |

| Connecting
Next-Generation Packet Networks
to Traditional PSTNs |
| The demand for voice-over-packet
technologies has created significant
opportunities in world-wide
markets for equipment vendors
and telecommunications carriers. The
newer packet-switching equipment enables
more efficient use of available bandwidth
and is less costly to purchase, install,
and maintain. More... |

| Emergency
911 in Packet Networks |
| While IP technology
has advanced to the point where
it is now routinely deployed
in Voice-over-IP and telephony voice
networks, the unchanged 911/E911 tandems
that handle emergency calls have fallen
years behind the current technologies. More... |

| International
Connectivity |
| From one continent
to another, and every country
in between, carriers can encounter
dozens of in-band and out-of-band signaling
protocols. A single country
may even have multiple signaling protocols
operating simultaneously within its
public switched telephone network (PSTN),
a situation that presents numerous gaps
in international connectivity. More... |

| Primary
Rate (PRI) ISDN to ISUP SS7
Signaling Conversion |
| Access to SS7 networks
allows service providers to
offer ISDN-specific calling
and supplementary features to their
customers. However, many existing switches,
PBXs, Internet Access products, and
intelligent peripherals do not have
native SS7 network support. Encore Networks'
SignalPath™ 230
is ideal for applications requiring
signaling conversion from PRI T1/E1
ISDN links to Signaling System No. 7
(SS7/C7) ISUP links. More... |
