Toronto, ON – MERA Systems Inc., a key developer of VoIP software products, today announced that its all-in-one VoIP product, MERA VoIP Transit Softswitch II is compliant with VoIP Gateways product line from D-Link, an award-winning manufacturer of networking solutions.

The testing was set out to ensure interoperability between D-Link VoIP Gateways and MERA VoIP Transit Softswitch II (MVTS II) concerning registration, DTMF transmission according to RFC2833/INFO, T.38 real time fax and other functions. The results of testing show that D-Link VoIP Gateways product line is fully compatible with MVTS II providing VoIP carriers with an excellent opportunity for businesses development by adding enhanced capabilities, unrivaled price performance and flexibility to their networks.

MVTS II is the next generation of the field-proven MVTS that has absorbed all the recent concepts to manage large volumes of diverse VoIP traffic. Being a carrier-grade softswitch with integrated prepaid billing and unmatched routing flexibility, MVTS II delivers a wealth of new opportunities for VoIP carriers and service providers including native support of SIP, H.323 and their variants, advanced transcoding capabilities; sophisticated operation analysis and reporting tools. On top of this MVTS II offers VoIP carriers new business opportunities such as softswitch partitioning and number portability.

D-Link VoIP Gateways convert voice traffic into data packets for transmission over the Internet, combine the industry’s latest Voice over the IP network technology with advanced communication features, and are fully compatible with SIP Internet phone services. While running the optional server software, the gateways can be configured to establish a private VoIP network over the Internet without a 3rd party SIP Proxy Server. With high port densities, they provide a low cost of ownership, convenience and great savings for companies needing to place frequent long-distance and international business calls.
