Although direct Voice over IP peering is becoming increasingly used by service providers to interconnect their networks, TDM interconnection using the SS7 ISUP protocol is still mandatory in most business models and required by some national regulatory bodies. It is estimated that this type of interconnection will continue to be used for at least the next five years.
This is especially true in the area of Fixed-Mobile Convergence (FMC), where SIP networks must be interconnected to mobile networks. Mobile network operators traditionally use circuit-switched technologies for their telephony services, and will continue to do so even when deploying their 3G infrastructures. So, in the case of video telephony services on mobile 3G phones, for example, SS7 to SIP video gateways are required for the simultaneous reception and emission of voice and video during calls.
The SMC-SS7 is the interconnecting platform between Voice over IP (VoIP) solutions and legacy fixed or mobile circuit-switched networks using SS7 ISUP protocols. SMC-3G adds the extra capacity to interconnect video over IP to circuit switched mobile 3G-324M terminals.
Terminating voice and 3G-324M video telephony calls: a unique feature of the SMC-SS7 platform and its new SMC-3G add-on.
Mobile operators are enabling an increasing number of mobile subscribers to enjoy high-bandwidth Internet and email on their mobile phone through deployment of 3G infrastructures in their network. These services have been particularly successful with business users.
For the consumer mass-market, mobile operators have been using 3G video telephony services to attract subscribers. These services use the 3G-324M protocol, a standard designed for one-to-one video telephony using 64 kbit/s circuit-switched networks. With 3G-324M compliant mobile phones now widely available, mobile video telephony is becoming a reality.
The next step is to increase video telephony usage through the interconnection of 3G-324M circuit-switched mobile networks to SIP packet-based networks, enabling video telephony services between fixed and mobile terminals. The SMC-SS7 platform and its SMC-3G additional software module are pioneering this interconnection by acting as a circuit-to-packet gateway that enables mass market fixed-mobile one-to-one video telephony and interactive video telephony services.
From Netcentrex to Comverse: leading the way in SS7 to SIP interconnect
Netcentrex, a market leader in IP-based communication solutions, and a subsidiary of Comverse since 2006, launched its first SS7 interconnect product in 2001. Constant technical developments have made the SMC-SS7 platform into a comprehensive SS7 telephony interconnect solution with the following features:

Constant technical developments have made the SMC-SS7 platform into a comprehensive SS7 telephony interconnect solution with the following features:
- Configurable ISUP interface
- SIP and H.323 Voice over IP interface
- Fully-associated and quasi-associated signaling modes
- Fully distributed, standards compliant architecture
- Carrier-Grade platform
- Easy network integration
- Supports AudioCodes Media and Signaling Gateways
- New SMC-3G add-on
- 3G-324M to SIP interconnect
- Combined Voice & Video gateway
- Smooth upgrade path from ISDN to SS7 ISUP
- Runs on cost-effective hardware platforms
Fully interoperable with AudioCodes’ solutions, the combination of the SMC-SS7 platform with the media and signaling gateways gives operators a head-start in delivery of fixed-mobile communications. They benefit from faster time-to-market, due to pre-integration of the solutions, and from the added value brought by the new communication services in terms of revenue generation and subscriber growth.
