Hughes Software Systems solution speeds deployment of
future converged networks
Germantown, MD - October 19, 2001
Hughes Software Systems(HSS), Specialists in Convergent
Network software and India's # 1communications software company,
has announced the availability of its new Signaling System
7 - Signaling Transport (SS7-SIGTRAN) solution. The new standards-based
software significantly cuts the time and costs of transition
to next-generation converged voice and data networks, reduces
deployment risks and allows Original Equipment Manufacturers
(OEMs) to concentrate on differentiating their products through
value-added technologies.
"We are committed to integrating best-in-class complementary
technologies that allow our OEM customers to get to market
faster," said Arun Kumar, President and Managing Director,
Hughes Software Systems. "With this solution, we are
uniquely positioned to provide more value to our customers,
who now have a single vendor solution for both network requirements.
Our customers can further enhance on this base by using any
of our higher software solutions on SS7 and GPRS/3G, and/or
Voice over Packet."
SS7 (Signal System 7) is a technology in which signaling
information related to many information circuits is conveyed
over a separate circuit by addressed packets. SIGTRAN (Signaling
Transport) defines a suite of protocols and adaptation layers
for transporting signaling information over IP based networks.
This integrated solution is the latest addition to Hughes
Software Systems' SS7 and SIGTRAN stacks, which are provided
as building blocks, each tailored to meet specific needs.
HSS products are utilized by OEMs to build network nodes for
the third-generation mobile and voice over packet infrastructure.
The new offering provides OEMs with a clear choice of leveraging
IP infrastructure from Mobile to Wireline networks and vice
versa, with minimum change in the OEM's application layers.

leading technologies from the Voice over Packet and GPRS/UMTS
space to offer OEMs "best in class" complementary
technologies.
This integrated off-the-shelf SS7-SIGTRAN solution accelerates

costs.
HSS, a prominent value-add products and solutions supplier
in the Voice over Packet and Mobile Networks markets, provides
the integrated SS7-SIGTRAN solution as various packages, each
tailored to meet specific needs:
