Lowell, MA, May 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NetNumber announced today that Cellact, a telecommunications provider in Israel has chosen it’s new Signaling Transfer Point Appliance (STP-A) to help modernize their network, setting the groundwork for service expansion and growth, both in and outside of the region. Cellact will begin deploying NetNumber’s STP-As in the second quarter of 2021 with the goal of being operational by the end of the second quarter of 2021.
The STP-A is a new small form-factor version of NetNumbers existing, hardened STP that is deployed in dozens of Tier 1 and Tier 2 carriers across the globe. TITAN STP technology provides a cost-effective solution for either hardware-based or virtualized deployments. This version is specifically designed for solutions that require a smaller footprint and capacity while maintaining all of the innovative features and technology that the TITAN platform is known for, including full number portability and gateway functions.
By selecting NetNumber’s STP-A solution, carriers and MNOs are investing in a future-proof infrastructure that reduces TCO while dramatically simplifying the transition both from a TDM network to IP, and from SS7 to a SIP/ Diameter-based signaling environment. This multi-generational solution will enable Cellact to transition to a modern network architecture setting the stage for the rapid growth that they are expecting.
“The industry is faced with challenges around continued investment by some vendors in the legacy domains around 3G and SS7 products and services. While traffic is certainly shifting to 4G and staring to move to 5G, it is shifting slowly, and there is still a need from operators at all levels to be able to service their customers and protect their revenues on their SS7 networks,” said Matt Rosenberg, chief revenue officer, NetNumber. “We are excited to be able to provide Cellact, a longstanding member of our family, with this new product. The STP-A provides a simple solution to continue to support existing traffic while giving them the flexibility to seamlessly pivot to provide new, innovative services over our intergenerational platform.
“Our goal has been and will continue to be to make life easier for our operations department by using a solution that is both reliable and easy to operate. NetNumber has been a terrific partner for us, and their vision and product strategy align very tightly with our own,” said CEO, Amir Dorot. “I believe and count on our longstanding partnership with NetNumber that will continue to be a strategic part of that journey.”
