Comverse Converges Connexion, Opens Bahamas

Comverse has announced two Northern Hemisphere customer wins with FTTH operator Connexion and Bahamas Telecommunications Company (BTC).

Cary, North Carolina-based Connexion provides one-stop shopping for real estate developers and communities looking for a FTTH network with design, installation, and operational services. Connexion Technologies will be using Comverse's My Call Converged Communications system to help carriers serve residential customers with IP-based phone services, complementing the company's other fiber broadband services such as high-speed Internet, television, and home security monitoring.

Operating on Comverse's Class 5 Application Server, MyCall Converged Communications is a pre-integrated solution based on an IMS architecture, providing messaging services across fixed and mobile phones as well as PCs. Two of the applications of MyCall, the PC Communicator and Mobile Communicator, allow users to access all of their communication and messaging services - including telephony, voicemail, SMS, MMS, IM and Presence - via PC and mobile phone respectively using a single ID/telephone number.

BTC, in operation for more than 100 years, is installing Comverse's InSight Open Service Environment along with voice mail and other services for its wireline subscribers. InSight, installed at more than 100 operators around the world, provides an open and modular environment for the delivery of a wide variety of communications, messaging, and content services over IP, circuit-switched, hybrid and IMS networks. An IP-based architecture and standard interfaces enable core components to be shared by multiple services.
