Alianza and
Redline tested Alianza’s hosted voice platform with Redline’s WiMAX
Forum Certified® RedMAX systems as part of the Redline Ecosystem
Verification (REV) program. The REV program verifies connectivity and
performance between Redline's RedMAX™ and RedMAX™ 4C Mobile WiMAX
products and other WiMAX devices, enabling carriers to accelerate the
deployment of interoperable networks. The program also includes
Redline's RedCONNEX™ and RedACCESS™ families, which are used by carriers
around the world to support high-bandwidth voice, video and data
services. Several WiMAX equipment companies, including base station,
customer premise equipment and chip manufacturers, as well as WiMAX
peripherals vendors, are now taking part in the REV program.
Alianza’s fully integrated hosted voice platform is specifically
designed for WiMAX service providers. Alianza's platform is a robust,
multi-functional and highly scalable solution that offers service
providers the fastest, simplest and most economical way to provide
advanced telephony services to their residential or business customers.
It allows WiMAX service providers to focus on generating revenue instead
of managing the expense and operational details of building a voice
solution.
"We are pleased to partner with Redline, who is a leader in establishing
WiMAX networks throughout the world," said Brian Beutler, Alianza CEO.
"We look forward to working closely with them to expand globally and
provide superior quality voice services with simple, plug and play
implementation."
"Service providers deploying full-service WiMAX networks can leverage
Alianza’s easy to install voice platform to add voice services to their
networks at lower costs than what’s currently offered by proprietary
vendors," said Kevin Suitor, vice president of marketing and business
development, Redline Communications. "High quality voice services based
on open standards are an important element in the roll-out of successful
Mobile WiMAX networks. The combination of Redline’s WiMAX technology and
deployment expertise and Alianza’s voice-over WiMAX platform will
benefit the operators’ business model."
