Taqua Inc. and BroadSoft Inc. said Tuesday that New York-based integrated communications service provider Transbeam has chosen the TaquaWorks switching solution to replace its existing switching platform. TaquaWorks is the Taqua 7000 Switching System (T7000) equipped with the BroadSoft BroadWorks suite of VoIP applications.
“The choice of the TaquaWorks solution was based on a meticulous evaluation of several different vendor offerings,” said Marc Sellouk, founder of New York City-based Transbeam. “Ultimately, we choose the TaquaWorks offering because it provided us the best combination of reliability, flexibility, and incredibly advanced feature set. When you combine the Taqua switching and BroadSoft advanced applications into one offering, it’s hard to match. We felt this solution would allow us to significantly distance ourselves from our competitors and continue our strong subscriber growth.”
Transbeam is utilizing the T7000 Switching System to deliver Class 5 services and a suite of unified communications to either TDM or IP-based subscribers simultaneously from the same compact chassis. TaquaWorks gives Transbeam the ability to provide other midsize and small CLECs and IOCs an integrated solution that delivers the legacy switch replacement they need with the industry’s most advanced IP applications, the companies said.
TaquaWorks supports the leading industry protocols such as GR303, PRI, CAS, POTS as well as SIP, MGCP and NCS. It allows subscribers to manage their multiple types of communications, such as e-mail, and wireless and wireline telephony.
