Anatel Communications Corporation Spun Off From
Analogic
Anatel Communications Corporation,
formerly Analogic’s
Communications Products Group, is being spun off to better focus on the
explosive opportunities in the voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and
Internet Telecommunications markets.
“We believe the new company has a tremendous advantage in the
foundation
that has been laid as a successful division of Analogic for well over a
decade,” stated Chappell Cory, who has been appointed President of
Anatel Communications. “We already are one of the top suppliers of VoIP
boards, with customers including such market leaders as Lucent, ECI
Telecom, and Net2Phone. We have had a technology leader with our
innovative family of TAP-800 telephony resource boards. Now our
expanding line of CompactPCI, T1/E1 and DS-3 network access boards
should allow us to meet the needs of an even larger number of
applications in the broader Internet Telecommunications market,
including Softswitch architectures, voice routers (PBXs) and Call Center
systems.”
Anatel Communications’ new organizational structure, increased
investment in engineering, and new strategic alliances will enable
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to purchase fully
integrated box-level Media Gateways systems that are expandable to
10,000 ports and beyond. “Anatel Communications’ customers, therefore,
should be able to focus on their added value applications and get
solutions into the hands of their customers faster,” explained David
Fridley, Director of Marketing. “ This industry runs on ‘Internet
Time,’
so time to market is critical to our customers’ success.”
“Marketing and sales channels are expanding rapidly,” commented
Terry
Shugart, Director of Sales. “Our new representative in Texas, RACOR
Systems, has already brought on board a major new OEM customer. Also,
our VoIPonline technical seminar series, which we started in January, is
enabling us to speak with the many telephony engineers who are seeking
innovative solutions for implementing VoIP.”
Anatel Communications will be announcing new strategic alliances and
new
system-level VoIP and Media Gateway products in the near future.
