Software Systems SIP Technology
HSS' SIP Technology powers the Newport Networks
MediaProxy™ 1460 session controller
New Delhi, India, January 15 2003
Newport Networks Limited today announced that
it has deployed Hughes Software Systems' (HSS) SIP & Megaco
technology in the Newport Networks MediaProxy™ 1460 session
controller.
This partnership combines the proven expertise
of HSS in providing standards compliant signalling protocols
with the high performance and resilient media stream processing
provided by the carrier class Newport Networks MediaProxy™
1460.
The MediaProxy™ 1460 is part of the critical
infrastructure that Service Providers need in order to sell
commercially viable, managed voice and multimedia services
over IP. It accelerates the launch of these IP-based services
to consumer and business customers and extends the service
reach to a global market.
The HSS SIP technology is a key element of the
MediaProxy™ 1460. Adopting the IETF Midcom architecture,
the signalling layer communicates with the media control layer
through the HSS Megaco interface. As part of this turnkey
solution, HSS will integrate the Newport Networks SignallingProxy™
adjunct into the MediaProxy™ 1460.
HSS offers robust, tested and always-compliant
infrastructure SIP software modules. Being among the first
to adopt SIP technology, HSS today has the most comprehensive
and proven industry offering. The comprehensive, multi-pronged
SIP offerings from HSS are designed to suit the requirements
of application development at various levels. These are: stack
APIs for low-level manipulation, a toolkit for abstracted
APIs for call-level applications and the SIP Server Framework
as a ready-to-deploy infrastructure enabler to plug-in new
& innovative applications.
The synergy of HSS' SIP Stack Framework and
Newport Networks' MediaProxy™ 1460 will provide Service
Providers with a cutting edge solution for IP-networks that
support voice and multimedia services.

Telecom Equipment Manufacturers and Application Stack Vendors
with a rich set of APIs that enable development of a niche
VoP application", said Manoranjan Mahopatra, Executive
