Transform Switching Infrastructure To Support VoLTE and IMS Initiatives
Gain your competitive edge and shed yourself of the limitations of your end-of-life SS7 TDM or SoftSwitch technology. Transform your Routing and Switching infrastructure with proven confidence to support VoLTE and IMS initiatives with the Enghouse ControlSwitch System. The ControlSwitch System is an open, carrier class, fully virtualized and Cloud ready solution for public and private cloud deployments.
Transform Your Legacy Switching Infrastructure to IMS and VoLTE
Service providers around the globe have deployed the ControlSwitch System to replace their aging and end-of-life legacy softswitch or TDM switching infrastructure. The ControlSwitch System Class 4 softswitch scales from a few thousand ports to networks with over one million ports expanding as your demand grows and eliminating the concern of having to undergo costly forklift upgrades like some other vendor approaches. And since it is an open softswitch solution, the ControlSwitch System is field proven to work with an array of other vendors’ media gateways such as from Cisco or AudioCodes to help operators leverage their existing legacy investment.
The ControlSwitch System includes Diameter protocol support for charging and postpaid applications as well as support for CAMEL protocol based services such as mobile number portability. The operationally friendly platform makes it easier to centrally manage multiple ControlSwitch System instances across the globe and reduces the time and effort to update even the most complex routing tables. Reduced footprint configurations for the ControlSwitch System gives service providers with more modest initial traffic requirements, a future-ready, cost-effective, carrier-class switching platform with advanced features to help differentiate their VoIP offerings.
Service providers have the flexibility to architect their network with true geographic diversity. That means high availability and disaster recovery as well as increased operational efficiency since you can manage your Class 4 infrastructure as a single entity.
Migrate to IMS/VoLTE With Confidence
Service providers needing best-in-class connectivity to both IP and TDM networks can deploy the ControlSwitch System to act as both the Media Gateway Control Function (MGCF) and Breakout Gateway Control Function (BGCF) in next generation IMS and VoLTE networks. I-Gate 4000 PRO and EDGE Media Gateways provide the bearer plane handling and BorderNet™ Session Border Controllers can be integrated operationally with the ControlSwitch System to provide IP-to-IP connectivity for Interconnection Border Control Function (IBCF) applications. The ControlSwitch System is part of Dialogic’s comprehensive portfolio of IMS transformation solutions to help you take your network to the next level.

The barriers are coming down swiftly to any voice roaming alternative other than VoLTE—so now is the time to get ready, if you haven’t already made plans to do so. Most operators plan to move all voice services to a single core, essentially eliminating legacy CS. Put simply, this means that VoLTE—and, in time, VoNR—will inevitably dominate voice services going forward.
