A partnership between iSkoot and Cisco is intended to bring together VoIP and the public switched telephone network. iSkoot has integrated it’s services with the Cisco AS500 Series Universal Gateway and the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch to connect the VoIP network with traditional landlines.
“We’re excited to be working with Cisco and their state-of-the-art, carrier-class technology to enable seamless integration with carrier networks worldwide,” said Jacob Guedalia, Chief Operations Officer at iSkoot. “As a result of our successful interoperability testing, iSkoot’s mobile solution is now commercially deployed by mobile operators around the globe. We’re honored that Cisco is recognizing this achievement by featuring our software at the Mobile World Congress.”
The integrated system has been successfully deployed in several markets worldwide.
“As the Internet increasingly becomes the foundation for all mobile communications, the Cisco Internet Protocol Next-Generation Network architecture provides the scalability, openness, and reliability that service providers need to deploy innovative applications such as iSkoot and deliver new profitable services to their subscribers,” said Jon Hindle, director of mobility marketing at Cisco.
