Radisys partners with Hughes Software
Systems To Provide Middleware On Voice Gateway Platform
August 17, 1999
RadiSys, a leading global manufacturer of embedded computing
solutions for telecommunications and other industries, today
announced that it has entered into a mutually beneficial agreement
with Hughes Software Systems (HSS), a premier global communication
software provider, to integrate HSS' voice over internet protocol
(VoIP) software solution and communication protocol stacks
with RadiSys telecom gateways.
RadiSys and HSS intend to create a value added, "application
ready" platform for VoIP and gateway solutions. HSS'
highly portable, value-added gateway software based on latest
MGCP/MEGACO standards is being integrated with RadiSys' development
platforms, such as the VGP-200, a CompactPCI rack-mount kit.
It provides developers a complete development package all
the way up to the customers' specific API. Adherence to new
telephony standards assures ease of integration. Development
time, already minimized with RadiSys' TASK-6000 telecom application
specific kernel, will be further reduced by this application
ready platform.
"This is a win-win relationship not only for RadiSys
and HSS, but also for our mutual customers, said Arun Kumar,
president and managing director of HSS. "Now, with access
to RadiSys' telecom gateway solutions, our customers will
benefit by having our standards based VoIP software solution
already ported onto industry leading hardware along with protocol
stacks like SS7, H.323, and ISDN. The time to profit advantage
is significant."
RadiSys provides telecom and datacom OEMs both the building
blocks and the integrated systems that enable voice and data
convergence. "RadiSys has long provided our customers
solutions that combine our expertise in Intel architecture
CPUs, Texas Instruments DSP co-processors, WAN co-processors,
software, algorithms, and system enclosures," said Arif
Kareem, RadiSys vice president and general manager of the
RadiSys Telecommunications Division. "This collaboration
with HSS allows us to take our solutions one step further
by providing application resources complete with the protocol
stacks. The complementary strengths of both companies will
be of enormous benefit to the customers of HSS and RadiSys
- both current and prospective."
Hughes Software Systems (www.hssworld.com), headquartered
in India, offers the full spectrum of communications related
software services, products and solutions. HSS recently released
its MultiQuick* series of VoIP solutions for gateway and gatekeeper
built around MGCP/MEGACO, SIGTRAN, and H.323 standards. HSS
is a leading supplier of ProtoQuick* series of portable protocol
stacks like SS7, V5.2, VB5, ISDN, H.323, ATM, FR, etc., built
around its Advanced Architecture for Protocol Engineering
(AAPE*). With customers spread over the Americas, Europe and
Asia, HSS focuses on providing solutions to Telecom/ Datacom
Equipment Manufacturers, System Integrators and Communication
Services Providers.
