Digitalk becomes preferred platform provider for Acmetel

European mobile network operator Digitalk will deploy its Digitalk SBC VoIP peering application for Acmetel, a privately owned UAE-based next generation voice carrier operator, RealWire reported. As Acmetel's preferred platform provider for its international wholesale and retail services, Digitalk will move the company's prepaid services to the Digitalk Multiservice Platform. Acmetel wanted to take greater control of service offerings and selected Digitalk on its ability to deliver a full suite of fully integrated operations and business management functionality, and specifically to broaden the rating options for its wholesale customers. Acmetel also wanted to overcome the dependency on cumbersome hardware upgrades to achieve capacity and feature expansion. The Digitalk SBC VoIP Peering application offers a range of advanced routing options, which allows operators to manage routes based on cost, quality and margin, ensuring traffic is routed without loss or within a minimum profit threshold. Another critical advantage for Acmetel is the flexible carrier interworking achieved through the SBC Media Server's dynamic software-based transcoding enabling them to significantly expand carrier routing options without the need to deploy additional technologies.
