TelcoBridges NEW Tmedia TMG800 and TMG3200 VoIP/Media Gateways Outperform the Competition by up to 100% for TDM-IP and IP-TDM

Tuesday, November 29th, 2011 (Boucherville, QC) – TelcoBridges Inc., the preferred hardware and software supplier for telecom resellers, system integrators, solution developers and service providers, today announced the launch of its NEW Tmedia TMG800 and TMG3200 VoIP/Media gateways. Recognised within the industry for its high-density telecommunications equipment, TelcoBridges beats the nearest competition in terms of performance; the NEW TMG3200 2U VoIP/Media  gateway hits performance levels of between 75 and 90 completed calls per second (CCPS) for SIP-SS7 and SS7-SIP when using TelcoBridges text CDR and Routing Scripts. When considering the statistics for call attempts per second (CAPS), the NEW TMG3200 hits rates of between 165 to 230 CAPS for SIP-SS7 and SS7-SIP.

This past March 2011, Dialogic announced the launch of its BorderNet™ 2020 Integrated Multimedia Gateway, with 2.6 times the session capacity of the previous generation Dialogic IMG 1010 Integrated Media Gateway. The IMG2020 achieves “call rates ranging from 36 to 52 calls per second when connecting mobile or fixed line subscribers to mobile VAS and cloud-based services.”i  TelcoBridges new TMG3200 blows these performance numbers out of the water, hitting performance levels between 70% to just over 100% greater than those of Dialogic. This announcement will undoubtedly take the industry by storm, when carriers are looking to invest in next generation technologies that will ensure greater long-term value.

Founded in 2002, TelcoBridges has always been considered a “newbie” to the gateway scene, but with their ten year anniversary set to kick-off this January 2012 and these new gateway offerings already shipping, TelcoBridges is setting itself apart from the competition, demonstrating that they are no longer the new kids in town. Offering gateway systems with capacity from 1 to 1024 T1/E1s, 1 to 48 DS3 or 1 to 16 OC3/STM1; regardless of the size of the business, TelcoBridges is able to answer carriers needs for bridging TDM to IP, IP to TDM and IP to IP voice, data and signaling, while ensuring the highest density and highest performance for the greatest value.

“With the convergence of services toward IP host-based platforms, our customers are requesting more and more performance from their gateway solutions.   We are certainly proud of the outstanding performance in BHCC or BHCA that our Tmedia products can achieve for the relay of every protocol, and we are dedicated to pushing our products again to new thresholds of performance in the near future. From call centers to tele-voting going through SS7 to VoIP applications, gateway performances will always be an important factor having an impact on the price and simplicity of the overall system.” states Mr. Carl Boulanger, CTO, TelcoBridges Inc.

TelcoBridges is so confident of its products performance and ability that new clients’ who want to see the Tmedia’s functionality for themselves, can contact any of TelcoBridges certified reseller partners and ask to take part in the Try & Buy program risk free. Carriers will have the opportunity to select their Tmedia, receive a preconfigured product that will be remotely installed and tested; demonstrating its ease of installation, integration and interoperability.

Happy Halloween from the TelcoBridges Team!

Every year, as usual the TelcoBridges team gets a little scary and dresses up for Halloween! We are wishing you and your entire family and fun and safe Halloween!

TelcoBridges Tmedia 1+1 Solutions; Focused on Providing HA & Redundancy



TelcoBridges announced the official launch of its Tmedia 1+1 Solutions and release of its software version 2.6, in June 2011. For the official release click here.
The TelcoBridges Tmedia 1+1 solutions answer service providers’ needs for high availability and redundancy. 

The Tmedia 1+1 solutions consist of three components:
1) A standard Tmedia Unit (2U)
2) A Tmedia +1 Unit (2U)
3) And a Tmedia 1+1 patch panel (1U)



Here is a sample of our Tmedia DS3 1+1 Solution




How the solution works...
When properly installed and configured, the standard Tmedia unit acts as the primary (active) VoIP gateway and the Tmedia +1 unit acts as the secondary (standby). The two are controlled through the connection of the VoIP ports 0 and 1 and in the event of product malfunction; traffic is transferred from the active to the standby unit through the patch panel connection, without the need for human intervention. 

Tmedia 1+1 solutions ensure redundancy in terms of: power redundancy, packet network redundancy and facility protection.

TelcoBridges e-store to Launch in November 2011

TelcoBridges, recognize in the industry for the design and manufacture of high quality, reliable and high density VoIP gateways, development platforms and network monitoring will be launching its very first e-commerce site this November.

TelcoBridges has focused on two principles to drive long terms business: 1) the development of its channels, and 2) making working with TelcoBridges simple for its clients. The new TelcoBridges e-store was developed with these two principles in mind. The estore takes a completely customizable products and makes it easy to select all the product options, without a second thought. 

To be launched to partners only, the TelcoBridges estore allows for quotes of the product in under 2 minutes, details all the custom VoIP gateway options from choice of power supply to number of SS7 links, hardware ready options, extended warranties and additional technical support banks, all through easy to use drop down menus. View the product close up, browse data sheets and technical information, comparison shop between the models...Add to your cart and you can even order direct online. 

Questions are up in the air whether this is a step TelcoBridges is taking toward communicating their MSRP in the market. Currently no MSRP is circulated and as TelcoBridges is a privately held company, pricing is currently in the hands of partners to send in the market. However, initial market research is suggesting that should this happen TelcoBridges products would quickly begin to take head on the competition. there is no certain decision on whether this will become a reality or not in the near future. We will keep you posted.

TelcoBridges new e-store will be accessible to its partners through its web site: http://www.telcobridges.com.
Watch for it in November 2011!
