Over 10 billion minutes of voice traffic per month are now transmitted through Sonus-based wireless networks. That was Sonus Networks’ (News - Alert) message at the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, earlier this week.
According to a research report titled “Packetized Wireless Trunking: 2007 Status Report” by independent research firm iLocus, Sonus now carries more than 37% of wireless packet-based traffic. The company’s IP Multimedia Subsystem (News - Alert) (IMS )-ready solutions form the backbone of many wireless networks in the U.S. and Japan.
There’s other evidence of Sonus’ impact in the competitive global wireless network market. In December, Infonetics Research said in a report that for the first nine months of 2006, Sonus captured 23% of the global high density gateway market, with a 37% share in North America and 29% share in the Asia-Pacific region.
Meanwhile, Sonus is busy trying to keep up with expanding wireless infrastructure needs. Last month, Sonus said its IMS core platform would support the newly standardized method to provide both local number mortability (LNP ) and mobile number portability (MNP) services for Japanese network operators. The company also introduced a network border switch to help operators protect the integrity of their network.
