KPN Enhances Communication with Compunetix VoIP Solution

Voice over the Internet protocol is being rapidly deployed, and the convergence of the voice and data worlds is introducing exciting opportunities. Lower cost and greater flexibility are the key factors luring enterprises to transition to VoIP.

 

Compunetix, Inc has announced that KPN has added VoIP to its CONTEX Summit-based public service conferencing offer. KPN uses CONTEX Summit collaboration media processors with both VoIP and PSTN calls on the same system without the use of external gateways.

 

Voice calls maintain the reliability and quality of service that has become a benchmark in the industry, regardless of whether a call is VoIP or ISDN. The Compunetix VoIP solution easily passed the rigorous certification testing with the Ericsson (News - Alert) VoIP Connect SIP trunking interface -- a testament to Summit interoperability and versatility.

The VoIP launch marks a significant milestone for KPN as they expand their service offering and more efficiently manage operations. KPN uses Compunetix (News - Alert) CONTEX Summits for reservationless and event conferencing services.

 

Expressing satisfaction with the Summit VoIP/ISDN solution, Rudo Wijbrands, product manager of Conferencing for KPN said that this is reliable, high quality, scalable, and provides best-of-class service and Compunetix is an agile organization and provides us with innovative next-generation technology backed by excellent development and outstanding customer support teams. Ms. Monica Coraluppi, Compunetix Director of Business Development, EMEA, said that the company is honored to have been selected by KPN.
