Metreos Offers SIP Support

Metreos Corporation, a Texas-based VoIP provider announced the release of a new platform at VoiceCon Spring 2006. Representing a major upgrade to its flagship Metreos 2400 VoIP application environment, the new version adds support for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) to the environment and enables the development of a VoIP application ecosystem for the SIP standards-based VoIP infrastructure market. This adds to a growing list of supported call control protocols that includes H.323, SCCP, JTAPi, and H.323. What’s more, SIP is entirely abstracted for the developer and interoperates seamlessly with all applications built to run on the Metreos platform.


 
“We are excited about the promise of SIP to enable applications to seamlessly run across heterogeneous IP telephony environments. This new release of our platform delivers the industry’s only complete VoIP application environment with full SIP support,” said Joel Fontenot, CEO of Metreos.


 
The SIP standard has won plenty of enthusiasts throughout the IP telephony market because it offers a single signaling and event notification protocol that converges voice, video, and messaging communications. At the same time, it offers an open standards-based approach that allows applications and services to run on multiple platforms from different vendors across disparate networks.
 
Special features of Metreos’ new platform include:
 
Cisco CallManager 4.2 and 5.0 Support – Metreos adds support for the latest release of Cisco’s IP PBX, including the CallManager 5.0 release that now also supports SIP.
 
SIP-enabled Application Suite – Packages such as ActiveRelay, VoiceTunnel, ClickToTalk and RapidRecord can now be deployed using SIP on a standards-based, multi-vendor IP telephony infrastructure.
 
Speech Recognition – By adding speech recognition, developers can now take advantage of integrated speech recognition media processing when building applications such as spoken account codes.
