Sprint Touts SIP Trunking

Oct 06, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Sprint announced the general availability for all business customers of SIP Trunking, which leverages Sprint Global MPLS by using a single IP connection to facilitate the convergence of voice, data and video communication.



Sprint said that this convergence reduces local, long-distance and calling feature expenses.

"The advantages of SIP Trunking are in its flexibility and scalability, leveraging the power of Sprint's Global MPLS network," said Paget Alves, president of Business Markets Group, Sprint. "SIP Trunking is critical to delivering more value to our business customers because it eliminates the costly local trunks a business would need to purchase from local telephone companies and allows them to share capacity over one IP connection for multiple locations and applications." Sprint said that SIP Trunking is an important enabler for VoIP and unified communications deployment. It has been available since early this year specifically to support businesses with Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2. Sprint stated it was one of the first U.S.-based providers of SIP Trunking services qualified for use with Office Communications Server 2007 R2.



"The integration of Sprint SIP Trunking with Office Communications Server 2007 R2 allows businesses to further consolidate communications workloads into the IP network," said Moz Hussain, director of Unified Communications Group, Microsoft. "Services including voice conferencing and telephony can be delivered efficiently to help customers save costs and see increased value with unified communications." Sprint's MPLS solution is the foundation for SIP Trunking and allows IP PBXs to deliver the features and functionality of combined local LEC and LD-provider services along with Class of Service support of other real-time data. It also can provide connections to unified communications applications based on SIP, a signaling protocol for setup and teardown of voice communications sessions over IP networks.
