New Global Telecom Deploys Kagoor Network's Session Border Controller for Hosted NAT Traversal and Network Protection
Posted on: Wednesday, 2 June 2004, 06:00 CDT
SAN MATEO, Calif. and GOLDEN, Colo., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Kagoor Networks, a leading provider of session border control solutions, announced today that New Global Telecom (NGT), the leading U.S. provider of outsourced switching and network operations services, has deployed Kagoor's VoiceFlow 1000 Session Border Controller. NGT is deploying the VoiceFlow 1000 with the NAT (Network Address Translator) application to provide Hosted NAT Traversal, which is helping to expedite the delivery of VoIP to residential end-users through NGT's service provider customers.
Without Hosted NAT Traversal, NGT was unable to economically and easily provide VoIP services to remotely located users. Hosted NAT traversal permits VoIP calls to securely travel across the Internet and through the NAT device on the customer site. The VoiceFlow 1000 solves the NAT Traversal problem and greatly simplifies the configuration of Internet Telephones behind NAT devices like cable and DSL modems. Kagoor also provides NGT with security by hiding details of its network behind the VoiceFlow 1000.
"Kagoor helps New Global Telecom deliver the benefits of VoIP to our clients and, in turn, to their residential customers," said Perry Nelson, VP-VoIP Operations & Technology for New Global Telecom. "By enabling NAT traversal and optimizing handling of the signaling, Kagoor provides us with a simple and flexible solution that ensures efficiency of network transport."
NGT's outsourced wholesale IP services suite -- 6DegreesIP -- offers a turnkey solution for service providers seeking entry into the VoIP marketplace. 6DegreesIP includes Hosted IP PBX and Class 5 feature services, end-customer support, network and facilities management, back office support as well as local and long-distance origination/termination in hundreds of U.S. cities.
Using Kagoor's VoiceFlow solution, NGT's services can be delivered with minimal configuration to the customer VoIP endpoints (e.g., IP phones, analog devices, etc.) and without any changes to existing data firewall/NAT equipment at the customer site. "Our VoiceFlow NAT traversal solution is designed to meet the needs of providers of hosted VoIP services such as New Global Telecom," stated Opher Kahane, CEO and co-Founder of Kagoor Networks. "Kagoor is excited to be a key ingredient in NGT's innovative VoIP service delivery to the residential marketplace."
The VoiceFlow 1000 series and the VoiceFlow 3000 series make up Kagoor's carrier family of session border controllers. VoiceFlow 1000 is a 1U, fast Ethernet packet processing device capable of handling up to 2,000 concurrent VoIP calls. It provides for simultaneous operation of multiple session border control applications. VoiceFlow is network transparent and handles all of the popular VoIP protocols including SIP, H.323, MGCP and others. VoiceFlow 1000 is ideal for VoIP service provider deployments and distributed carrier locations.
