MetaSwitch takes aim at cable industry
By Carol Wilson
Having firmly established its softswitch technology in the independent and competitive telephone markets, MetaSwitch is expanding its focus to the cable TV industry, announcing a new product platform designed to let cable companies provide business VoIP services.
The company’s new product -- cleverly called COMPETE! -- Cable Operator Multiservice Platform for Enhanced Telephony Evolution – is already in deployment at 10 cable operators, MetaSwitch announced today, including Clear Creek Telephone & TeleVision, Cunningham Communications, Penasco Valley Telecommunications and Vidia Communications. COMPETE provides hosted PBX, unified communications and integrate T-1 capabilities for cable companies that are now turning their attention to the business market.
The move into the cable industry was a natural one, said Andy Randall, vice president of marketing at MetaSwitch, especially since some of his company’s independent telcos also operate as cable companies. In addition, the cable industry’s growing interest in business revenues and the shift to an IP Multi-media Subsystems (ISM) approach by Cable Labs helped pave the way into this new market.
