Adax Signaling Gateway (Adaxgw) Ported To Radisys' High- Performance Server Atca Single Board Computer

Providing a cost-effective, high-performance gateway on a blade, Interconnecting ss7 and ip for wireline and wirless networks

1 November 2007, Reading, UK - Adax, an industry leader in high-performance signaling infrastructure, has partnered with RadiSys to port the AdaxGW Signaling Gateway onto RadiSys' MPCBL0050 single board computer (SBC), providing a high-performance and cost-effective ATCA solution for connecting traditional SS7 to Next Generation and IMS IP Networks.

ATCA is an open standards based architecture designed to eliminate the high costs and slow time to market associated with traditional proprietary based telecommunications platforms.

The AdaxGW supports SS7 LSLs, Annex A HSLs, ATM and Ethernet connections for SS7/IP switching, routing and backhaul. The RadiSys MPCBL0050 Single Board Computer is RadiSys' most powerful ATCA SBC and has been designed to take full advantage of the ATCA standard providing a high-throughput, totally scalable, modular based system. It is a fantastic fit for the Adax Signaling Gateway reducing I/O bottlenecks and delivering significant performance improvements with a substantially reduced power envelope.

"Together, the AdaxGW Signaling Gateway and the RadiSys MPCBL0050 deliver the perfect solution for I/O and compute-intensive applications for connecting traditional SS7 and new IP networks," said Keate Despain, Senior Director of Product Marketing at RadiSys. “As the industry ecosystem continues to embrace standards like ATCA, TEMs will benefit from pre-integrated solutions that enable an increased focus on developing differentiated products and services,” continues Despain.

"Adax are extremely pleased to announce the porting of the Signaling Gateway onto RadiSys' SBC," comments Barry Zuckerman, President, Adax Inc. "Deploying the Adax Gateway on a blade provides customers with even greater flexibility and protection of investment for both SS7 and IP signaling applications as they will benefit from fast deployment of revenue generating services and reduced development costs," continues Zuckerman.

The joining of Adax and RadiSys technology provides one of the most powerful and cost-effective signaling solutions on the market today. It allows operators to manage the convergence and growth of their networks, maximize revenues, satisfy consumer demands for new services and ultimately protect their investment in both traditional SS7 and new IP networks.
