Telecom Lead America: Acme Packet has launched new
offerings to assist service providers to address growth in signaling traffic
across IP communications networks.

providers scale their next-generation signaling cores to support LTE and voice
over LTE.
The new solutions from Acme Packet include a new platform
for Acme Packet’s Diameter signaling controller (DSC) and session routing proxy
(SRP) solutions, new features for the DSC, and new management capabilities to
improve planning and troubleshooting for session delivery networks.

to deliver scalable solutions with leading control and routing functions,
helping service providers meet the requirements for migrating to the
next-generation of broadband voice and communication services,” said Greg
Collins, founder, Exact Ventures.
Acme Packet claims that its new Net-Net 7000 series is
already helping a number of service provider customers address these challenges
by expanding the capacity and performance of proven SIP and Diameter core
routing products.
“Service providers are facing growing challenges in
SIP and Diameter signaling due to the rising adoption of all-IP networks like
LTE and VoLTE,” said Seamus Hourihan, senior vice president, corporate
strategy, Acme Packet.
