TMCNet: Acantho Deploys BroadSoft for IP Centrex in Italy

[July 08, 2008]

Acantho Deploys BroadSoft for IP Centrex in Italy

(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
BroadSoft, a provider of VoIP application software, announced that its
BroadWorks VoIP application platform has been selected by Italian
telecom operator Acantho to deliver voice and multimedia services to
the enterprise market in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy.

Acantho delivers enterprise services via Gigabit Ethernet over optical
fiber starting with the Bologna, Imola, Forli-Cesena, Ravenna, Rimini
and Riccione areas, now joined with Modena and Ferrara.

"We evaluated more than 10 suppliers for our IP Centrex service," said
Roberto Vancini, CEO at Acantho. "Apart from the obvious differences in
capacity and reliability, BroadSoft stood out because we can connect
any type of IP-based telephone to the BroadWorks application platform
and provide a large range of overlay features such as conferencing and
unified communications. We were extremely impressed by the scalability
of the system and its ability to provide multi-tenant capability for
thousands of enterprises."

The initial BroadWorks deployment will be over the provider's Gigabit
Ethernet network. Additionally, the service will be enhanced with a
range of mobile capabilities in the same timeframe as the WiMAX


deployment.

"Acantho joins a list of over 80 operators who have deployed BroadWorks
in Europe, the Middle East and Africa region," said Michael Tessler,
CEO for BroadSoft. "The combination of BroadWorks and next-generation
access is a powerful combination for ICT providers."



Acantho has already begun deploying the service.
