Trillium(R)+Plus SIGTRAN From Continuous Computing(R) Provides High-Performance Binary Software Signaling Solution; Third Offering in Integrated Solutions Product Line Accelerates Time to Market at Fraction of the Cost

Posted on: Wednesday, 25 January 2006, 09:00 CST

Continuous Computing(R) Corporation, global provider of Network Service-Ready Platforms(TM) that enable telecom equipment manufacturers to rapidly deploy converged communications, today announced the release of Trillium(R)+plus SIGTRAN, a pre-integrated binary software signaling solution that enables rapid deployment of standards-based Signaling System 7 (SS7) over Internet Protocol (IP). The high-performance, low-cost solution will address the increasing need for integrated solutions to accelerate time to market for telecom network infrastructure products.

Trillium+plus SIGTRAN carries SS7 signaling traffic across IP-based networks and facilitates seamless and ubiquitous deployment of applications and services, regardless of the underlying network infrastructure. This allows telecom equipment manufacturers to focus internal resources on application development and results in the completion and deployment of network elements in a fraction of the time.

"As a pre-integrated product, Trillium+plus SIGTRAN empowers Continuous Computing customers to bridge new and existing technologies to older, legacy networks faster and more affordably. Trillium+plus binaries help accelerate time to market and are also extremely cost efficient," said Annita McDonald, deputy general manager of Continuous Computing's Trillium business unit. "The Trillium team has extensive industry expertise in SS7 and SIGTRAN, and Trillium+plus SIGTRAN is yet another step forward in our vision of providing complete Network Service-Ready Platforms for our customers."

The third offering in the new Trillium+plus integrated solutions product line, Trillium+plus SIGTRAN software is designed to run on existing host line cards and does not require additional hardware. Trillium+plus SIGTRAN may be used in Short Message Service Centers (SMSCs), Home/Visitor Location Registers (HLRs/VLRs), Mobile Switching Centers (MSCs), Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) and other core network components.

Trillium+plus SIGTRAN includes an integrated management software layer that combines stack configuration, alarming, reporting, fault management and element management functions. The software provides multiple customer interface options for industry-standard management application program interfaces (APIs) including C++, Command Line Interface (CLI), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Web-based graphical user interface (GUI). The solution also offers a high-level application API that facilitates rapid integration; the package is available for both Linux and Solaris.

Trillium+plus SIGTRAN is competitively priced and is available now for purchase. Visit http://www.ccpu.com/products/trilliumplus/sigtran.html for more information or stop by the Continuous Computing booth (Stand C71 / C73) at the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona, Spain from Feb. 13 - 16.
