Launch of Nokia Voice Solution
Nokia launched a new solution for broadband operators at the Broadband World Forum in Venice, Italy. This will enable broadband operators to combine VoIP services with broadband.
The Nokia Voice solution brings POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) compatibility to the Nokia D500 IP DSLAM, connecting traditional voice connections to a packet-based network.
Operators using the Nokia Voice solution can now introduce voice services into the broadband network. The solution will help fixed operators to save costs, capture segments of the market and increase Average Revenue per User.
The Nokia D500 IP Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer allows operators to migrate to a VoIP solution by supporting both Voice over Broadband connections, and basic analogue 2 wire POTS connections from the same platform. It also supports Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) enabling fast deployment of new services, including interworking “convergence” applications such as voice and multimedia applications for fixed and mobile operators. The Nokia D500 also provides the Quality of Service features for connectivity with WLAN enabled terminals and PCs.
The Nokia D500 delivers integrated IP functionality unlike any other IP DSLAM in the broadband industry. It also includes ADSL2+ features for enhanced bandwidth and greater reach.
