Voxeo Launches SIP Media Products for VoIP Application Delivery

Voxeo Corporation (www.voxeo.com) announced its VoipCenter 6.0 SIP platform, delivering standards-based Voice over IP (VOIP) application creation, integration, and deployment capabilities to any enterprise or service provider.

Unlike VOIP application platforms that combine open SIP telephony with proprietary application development interfaces, the VoipCenter SIP platform enables rapid, open SIP application delivery via the Call Control XML (CCXML) and VoiceXML standards.

"VoiceXML and CCXML come from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), the same standards body that delivered HTTP and HTML -- perhaps the two most successful application development standards ever created," said Jonathan Taylor, President and CEO of Voxeo.

The VoipCenter SIP Application Server software is built on Voxeo's proven Call Control XML (CCXML) engine and has routed over one billion calls since its first production deployment in early 2002.

The VoipCenter SIP Media Server software delivers a resumé even more impressive than that of its SIP call control sibling.

The VoipCenter SIP Media Server is driven by Voxeo's certified-compliant VoiceXML IVR and speech media application engine. VoiceXML delivers features to play prompts and speak synthesized text, record audio, and receive input via touch-tone entry or comfortable speech recognition.

The VoipCenter SIP Media Server also bundles highly intelligent English-language speech recognition and speech synthesis engines at no additional charge, and supports a wide variety of additional speech engines via support for the IETF Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) standard.

VoipCenter Fusion Servers integrate both Voxeo's SIP Application and Media software into a single 1U or 3U rack-mount server. Voxeo's SIP Fusion Server is the first turnkey telephony platform to offer VoiceXML IVR, CCXML call control, speech recognition, speech synthesis, call conferencing, call recording and an optional built-in PSTN-to-SIP VOIP gateway in one integrated, rack-mount device.

VoipCenter SIP products are available immediately from Voxeo as either a hosted service, software install, or turnkey server.
