With businesses and consumers looking for the best ways to cut the costs of their phone services, VoIP is becoming a booming industry. For those who are looking to get involved in the potentially lucrative telecom industry, a key component to business operations is the ability to handle Internet Protocol-to-Internet Protocol communications. An important tool for doing this is a VoIP softswitch. These devices run on a general-purpose computer system, and will allow companies to build and manage their VoIP networks easily.
VoIP softswitches come in two classes, class 4 and class 5. A class 4 softswitch will allow companies to route large numbers of calls between carriers. A class 5 softswitch is meant to work with end-users and provide further options for users. These additional services often include IP PBX (News - Alert) features, call center services, calling card platform, types of authorization, and QoS.
A telecom business will want to work with an efficient and secure softswitch, and New Concept Technologies has proudly presented their own aTel class 5 softswitch that they believe will fit the bill.
