Commatch 6004 allows WiMAX VoIP over existing TDM switches with seamless
interoperability
Lod, Israel -- Telrad networks announced today that its Commatch 6004
platform, which allows voice over WiMAX through existing TDM switches,
has been successfully deployed on two live networks in Poland, as part
of a deployment of Alvarion’s (NASDAQ: ALVR) WiMAX solution.

Commatch 6004 allows call handling in VoIP
deployments by providing a SIP to V5.2 gateway platform that transfers
voice signaling as well as services such as call waiting, caller ID, fax
and other services. The solution is particularly appealing in rural
areas, where cost is a major issue, and in initial WiMAX deployments,
where a softswitch is impractical or not economical.
“In much of the world now, we see operators using WiMAX to provide
access in locations where there previously was no access of any kind,“
said Rebecca Rachmany, Director of Marketing for Telrad Networks. “In
these locations, in addition to the broadband access, operators want to
provide voice, without the expense of a softswitch. Commatch 6004
allowed Alvarion’s customers to get voice up and running in just a few
hours.”
Commatch 6004 is a field-proven solution for providing fully-featured
voice over WiMAX, carrying over features available on the TDM switch to
the new IP network, with seamless interoperability.
“Typically operators want to first make sure the WiMAX and IP networks
are working before putting in a softswitch,” said Meir Bass, CTO of
Telrad Networks. “Commatch provides an ideal solution for transition to
next generation networks, preserving investment in existing TDM voice
switches, and providing immediate voice over WiMAX service,”
Telrad’s WiMAX Solutions are featured at WiMAX World Europe Expo,
Vienna, May 30-31, 2007, at Booth 508
