Newport signs up resellers in Singapore and Malaysia
Chepstow, UK. 18th October, 2005. Newport Networks, the developer of
carrier-class Session Border Controllers, has signed reseller agreements with
Eminuum and Silver Ridge to address the Singapore and Malaysia service provider
markets respectively.
VoIP in Singapore recently received a major boost after the government decided
to liberalise the VoIP market. The government plans to issue new 8-digit numbers
to VoIP service providers. According to iLocus the Singapore market has 10
service providers serving approximately 30,000 customers.
In 2005 the Malaysian regulator dropped the price of a VoIP licence from 80,000
dollars to 8,000 dollars. Consequently Malaysia has become an extremely active
market with more than 80 service providers holding an Application Service
Provider (ASP) licence for VoIP services. According to iLocus there are about
40,000 subscribers to a VoIP service in Malaysia.
The Newport Network's 1460 is the industry's most future proof VoIP session
control solution offering unmatched scalability, performance and investment
protection. The Newport 1460 can be deployed in an extremely flexible manner
separating both signalling and media alongside a simple migration path to
important future standards such as IMS (IP Multi-Media Subsystem).
Craig Decker, Vice President of Sales for Europe and Asia at Newport Networks
stated, "We are extremely excited at the prospect of working with Eminuum and
Silver Ridge to open up the Singapore and Malaysian markets. Both companies have
a proven track record in developing VoIP business in the service provider market
and the Newport 1460 will provide a valuable addition to their product
portfolio."
