Cedar Point Introduces Comprehensive Telephone Switch Replacement Program Ensuring Service Continuity for Existing Subscribers(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) DERRY, NH, March 16 / MARKET WIRE/ -- Cedar Point Communications, a worldwide leader in integrated Voice over IP (VoIP) switching technologies for service providers and enterprise telecommunications operators, today announced a comprehensive, cost-effective replacement program for providers who are using either TDM or VoIP switches that are nearing technology obsolescence. This program will provide a simple and smooth migration path to a cost-effective, next generation platform. Many cable and traditional telecommunication providers are looking for cost-effective alternatives to their older equipment that can deliver the services they need today and the ones they will need to offer in the future but they are concerned with potential service disruptions and outages. Cedar Point's replacement program is designed to ease those concerns by simplifying the migration process from their existing architecture to an IMS compatible architecture and mitigating any risk associated with service disruption. Cedar Point is bundling the SAFARI C3 with professional services that include network analysis, design, and planning for different migration scenarios.
