The Need For Speed: AT&T Nears Completion of 3G Wireless Technology Deployment That Delivers Broadband Wireless Speeds - for Downloads and Uploads

Source: alanweinkrantz.typepad.com

Summer is just around the corner, and by June the phone company as we no longer know it, will deploy High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) technology in the six remaining markets across AT&T’s entire 3G (third-generation) wireless broadband network.

When done, AT&T will have completed its deployment of HSUPA technology, which complements existing HSDPA technology (High Speed Downlink Packet Access), making AT&T the only U.S. carrier to have fully deployed HSPA technology in its 3G network.

Today the superfast AT&T 3G network is available in more than 275 markets. By year-end, the AT&T 3G network will be available in nearly 350 markets.

With the new addition of HSUPA technology, AT&T 3G users (think iPhone 2.0) can enjoy uplink speeds between 500 and 800 Kbps. The technology is available in all but the few remaining AT&T 3G markets and will be included in all future deployments. The new upload speeds complement AT&T’s 3G download capabilities, which currently offer up to 1.4 Mbps across all markets for customers who have capable devices, such as AT&T’s LaptopConnect wireless modems.

Source: alanweinkrantz.typepad.com

Ok…so it’s only one store so far, but tomorrow I will be in my local Starbucks where I will be able to get a free Pick of the Week from iTunes on the AT&T WiFi network.

Each Tuesday, more than 7,000 Starbucks company-operated locations in the US are stocking  a new "Pick of the Week"  download card redeemable on the iTunes Store for a complimentary song or music video hand-picked by the Starbucks Entertainment team and iTunes.

Last week the  first Pick of the Week, was the Counting Crows’ new song, “Washington Square.”

In addition to the free Wi-Fi access for qualifying AT&T customers and any Starbucks Card holder, customers will be able to purchase tiered access to the AT&T Wi-Fi network at Starbucks at attractive price points. For a two-hour period, customers will pay just $3.99 per session. Monthly membership will also be available for $19.99 per month, and will include access to any of AT&T’s 70,000 hot spots in 89 countries around the world.

Open source SIP stack released

Source: snapvoip.blogspot.com

Open source SIP stack OpenSIPStack has been rereleased under a triple licensing scheme to ensure that it can be used by the largest possible number of individuals and development communities. This tri-license aims to address the perceived incompatibilities between Mozilla Public License (MPL), GNU General public license (GPL) and GNU Lesser Public License (LGPL). The stack was previously distributed under MPL 1.0.

Open Source SIP project, openSBC is based on the OpenSIPStack, a fully compliant (RFC 3261) SIP stack designed for stability and scalability, and with a heritage of commercial usage. The project currently contains reference implementations of a session border controller (OpenSBC), Yeya and several components that are useful to developers wishing to use Solegy’s service deployment platform.
OpenSBC

OpenSBC is a reference implementation of a hybrid SIP proxy and B2BUA (back to back user agent) created from the Open SIP Stack core. It is well suited for a number of VoIP implementations. Among other things, it can be used as a Registrar for SIP endpoints, as an entry/egress point for SIP trunking applications, or as a far-end NAT traversal solution.

OpenSBC has been designed for scalability and flexibility. Deployments can grow incrementally with traffic needs because a primary instance can be configured to load balnce sessions across other instances. Each instance may be run on separate servers, or multiple instances may be run on a single server.

OpenSBC can perform the following functions:

Session Border Controller: Full back-to-back user agent (B2BUA) hides network topology with:
- Integrated web UI for basic configuration tasks
- far-end NAT traversal with RTP proxy
- Complete transparency for end-nodes with support for pass-thru of non-standard SDPs,
- Routing using static rules, ENUM or Solegy RTBE
- Comprehensive logs using syslog server
- Encryption of SIP and RTP packets with simple hash

Registrar: Fully standards-compliant with support for pass-through registrations (also referred to as upper registration) and integrated support for presence using SIP/SIMPLE or XMPP.

Proxy: Fully standard-compliant with multi-protocol support (UDP, TCP, TLS*), processing and relaying signals from remote (SIP) and local endpoints.

Presence: Compliant with SIP/SIMPLE and XMPP standards with support for PUBLISH as well as SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY events.

Event Packages: Support for message-summary information about waiting messages (voicemail) and presence

Solegy™ Offers Free VoIP Softphone for Microsoft Windows — Customized Softphones Available to Service Providers with a Full Range of Calling Features and Back-Office Functionality in a Hosted Environment.
