Toronto, ON – MERA Systems today announces it will demonstrate an updated VoIP softswitch portfolio and officially launch MVTS I to MVTS Pro Transition Program at International Telecoms Week (ITW) on June 1-3, 2009 at Marriott Wardman Park Hotel, Washington DC.

Being the meeting point for the international telecoms wholesale community, International Telecoms Week (ITW) gathers thousands of delegates and companies together allowing them to communicate their recent technological innovations as well as buy and sell both voice and data products and services.

MERA Systems will present there a set of Class 4 VoIP softswitches with one of the best routing flexibility and stability currently available on the market. Enhanced in functionality, MERA Systems products include the features that enable effective traffic management, such as prepaid/postpaid billing, real-time LCR and profitability control, and many other benefits. A suite of solutions the company will demonstrate at ITW 2009 consists of MERA VoIP Transit Softswitch II (MVTS II) and MERA VoIP Transit Softswitch Pro (MVTS Pro).

Introduced a year ago, MERA VoIP Transit Softswitch Pro, a next generation of the award-winning MERA VoIP Transit Softswitch I, has already gained popularity among VoIP operators. It was an impetus for MERA Systems to launch MVTS I to MVTS Pro Transition Program, a new program for its existing customers, whose number has reckoned up over 800 worldwide. The main goal of the program is to ensure an easy and straight-forward transition from MVTS I to MVTS Pro, a more functional and scalable product, that inherited the best features of a well-known MVTS I – ability to provide smooth equipment and networks interconnection, business-critical reliability and easy system management.

“MERA Systems has chosen this show that attracts the entire VoIP industry as a platform to announce the start of the Transition Program,” comments Konstantin Nikashov, CEO of MERA Systems, “For the past year MVTS Pro has proven to become the product that meets the up-to-date requirements of VoIP carriers allowing them to operate to the utmost of their capability. We specifically design this program for MVTS I owners to provide them with the opportunity to enhance business via step-by-step transition to MVTS Pro. ”

Resembling much of the MVTS I features, MVTS Pro comprises revolutionary new capabilities of VoIP softswitch that give customers the highest capability and scalability. MVTS Pro key benefits include an ultra-high capacity with CPS up to 1000 per traffic entry point combined with distributed architecture, geographic redundancy and dynamic distribution of traffic load which adds to the system’s efficiency and ensures top-level fault-tolerance.

Among competitive edges of MVTS Pro is also a native support of SIP, H.323, SIGTRAN/MGCP/ISUP-R and codec conversion. It should be mentioned that the similar routing concepts of MVTS I and MVTS Pro eases the process of transition for existing customers since they will be able to keep the significant part of MVTS I configuration, especially in respect of routing schemes.

“We offer special pricing quotations for those customers who join the program before August 1, 2009,” emphasizes Konstantin Nikashov, “Also in pursuit of try&buy policy, we are dedicated to letting our customers fully understand and appreciate our products before making any transition decision. With that in mind we provide the companies-participants of the program with a fully functional trial of MVTS Pro including free guidance and technical support for the test period.”
