Acme Packet adds new capabilities to Net-Net Session Router

In a play to help service operators offload certain capabilities from their older Class 4 voice switching systems while they make the conversion to IP-based communications, Acme Packet has enabled--on their Net-Net Session Router--IP-based number portability services, trusted calling party name services, geo-redundant access to routing databases, and source-based SIP session routing through the use of the Electronic Number Mapping System (ENUM) protocol.

These new capabilities are aimed to help service providers make the transition from SS7 call routing to SIP-based session routing while still being able to offer their traditional voice services. One of the key features of this offering is the network of databases and services using industry-standard ENUM, SIP and DNS protocols that the Net-Net SR system uses to make routing decisions within the core IP network or to the PSTN and other IP networks.
