“Running on the IBM BladeCenter server, the OKEFORD Media Platform provides a powerful media resource function, able to straddle current and next generation networks, perfect for telecoms environments that demand the highest performance and scalability.”
— Phil Taylor, Head of Product Management, Telesoft Technologies
Many communication service providers (CSPs) are seeking ways to launch new revenue earning media services which requires an open media platform solution that can straddle both legacy IN and new IMS networks.
Telesoft Technologies’ OKEFORD Media Platform combines both IMS Media Resource Function (MRF) and IN Intelligent Peripheral capabilities.
This enables service providers and application developers to rapidly develop and launch new, advanced interactive voice applications that can leverage legacy and next generation networks.
Key features of the OKEFORD Media Platform include:
- Powerful, high-capacity, carrier-grade media platform provides a cost effective solution
- Combined IMS media resource function (MRF) and IN intelligent peripheral creates a converge media platform easing migration to next generation architectures
- Optical interface supports high bandwidth STM-1 / OC-3 connectivity
- Supports multiple IP, cable, 2G, 3G wireless and wireline networks simultaneously
- IBM BladeCenter family provides a scalable, open standards based platform for next generation network applications. The combination of dedicated high performance media processing hardware, and host-based media processing software can deliver 2016 channels of voice play per blade server.
