Vancouver, Canada., July 14, 2003 - Convedia Corporation,
a leading provider of open, standards-based IP Media Servers, was honored
recently by Technology Marketing Corporation’s (TMC©) INTERNET
TELEPHONY® magazine with a prestigious TMC Labs® Innovation Award.
As a recipient of the award, Convedia was recognized for their demonstrated
vision, leadership, and attention to detail.
"Convedia is a noteworthy innovator in the
IP media server product segment," said Tom Keating, TMC’s CTO and
head engineer at TMC Labs®. "In selecting Convedia for a TMC Labs®
Innovation Award, we wanted to recognize the company’s achievements
not only in product development, but in their leadership defining the
market for IP media servers in next generation packet voice architectures."
"As an early entrant in the IP Media Server market, Convedia worked extensively
with customers and industry organizations to define the features, interfaces,
and benefits of distinct, purpose-built IP Media Servers for next generation
IP telephony networks," said Grant Henderson, Convedia’s Executive
Vice President of Marketing and Strategy. "We are pleased that TMC recognized
our product innovations and accomplishments, and we thank all the TMC
editors for the award."
Convedia’s award winning family of carrier
class IP Media Servers reduce capital and ongoing operational costs by
consolidating the functions of traditional announcement servers, interactive
voice response units (IVR/VRU), conference bridges, messaging equipment,
and speech platforms onto a single shared media processing platform. Convedia’s
media servers are controlled by application servers and softswitches through
open control protocols such as SIP, VoiceXML, MGCP, MSML/MOML and PacketCable
NCS.
