Agile IMS white paper

The emergence of the IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) offers the rich promise of converged voice, data and network communications over a single internet protocol (IP)-based infrastructure. For communications service providers (CSPs), there are first a number of challenges that need to be tackled before the nirvana of all-IP and IMS networks can be reached: CSPs must bridge the gap between operating and maintaining legacy platforms, while investing in the promise of IMS and all-IP networks. This white paper reveals the secrets of how the OKEFORD Media Platform provides a solid bridge from a traditional intelligent peripheral and media server to next-generation IMS media resource function while effortlessly maintaining legacy services and revenue streams.

The agile MRF is a new concept defined to address functional requirements from legacy and NGN domains and to overcome deficiencies in existing MRF solutions. The agile MRF is a unique hybrid approach that delivers:

Highlights:

  • Legacy signaling control support
  • Next-generation media resource control protocols
  • Hybrid SRF / MRF functionality
  • HMP / FPGA media processing capabilities
  • Full IMS support
  • Migration to full IP networks

The OKEFORD Media Platform from Telesoft Technologies is a truly agile MRF, designed to help CSPs more from earlier service networks to NGN service frameworks, while supporting the preservation of existing applications and the deployment of a rich array of new services. Offering full compliance to IMS standards, the OKEFORD Media Platform can also terminate ISDN, AIN, WIN and CAMEL, and therefore operate as a classical SRF with respect to the legacy network.
