Atlanta processor from TranSwitch to power China made WiMAX VoIP terminals

TranSwitch announced that it has received pre-production orders from a leading Chinese Telecom OEM for its Atlanta 80 processor for use in its WiMAX VoIP terminal equipment. Transwitch said the first widespread deployments of the Atlanta based WiMax Fixed Wireless Terminals (FWT) will be in Asia and Europe where rollouts are expected to begin during the third quarter of 2010. Deployments follow several months of rigorous field testing of equipment under varying network conditions to ensure interoperability, quality and performance.

Dr. M. Ali Khatibzadeh, President and CEO of TranSwitch said "Our Atlanta and Entropia product families offer best-in-class performance in terms of voice quality, power consumption and packet processing in the industry," concluded Dr. Khatibzadeh.

Mr. Kris Shankar, VP of Sales and Marketing at TranSwitch said "With an integrated Digital Signal Processor (DSP) optimized for VoIP, the Atlanta 80 product can simultaneously support 100 Mbps wire-speed routing with Network Address Translation (NAT), Security, WiFi, T38 Fax and up to eight voice channels while maintaining excellent voice quality. We are uniquely architected to deliver all these features with little to no impact on overall performance."
