Signalware Application-Ready Products
Ulticom's Application Ready Products provide the critical infrastructure for creation
and deployment of network services.
Signalware SP - Signaling Services Platform
The foundation of Ulticom's Application-Ready product line is Signalware SP, a middleware-based
advanced signaling services platform. Signalware SP hosts many of the most important
services associated with hundreds of fixed and wireless networks.
Signalware SP delivers a high-performance, robust, application creation and deployment
environment for revenue-generating signaling services. It supports the major telecom
operating systems, server platforms, and all major SS7 and SIGTRAN standards. Compliant
to IETF RFC standards, Ulticom's SIGTRAN software enables customers to maximize
the benefits of converging SS7 and IP technology. By providing a common interface
across both SS7 and SIGTRAN, Signalware SP enables application developers to write
an application once and move it effortlessly between SS7 variants, operating systems,
and hardware platforms.
Our purpose-built SS7 boards interconnect Signalware applications on SS7 and ATM
networks using T1/E1/J1 interfaces. These boards support the bus structures found
on modern commercial and NEBS computing platforms enabling customers to select the
hardware they prefer.
Signalware SF - Server Farm Services Platform
The model for telecom service delivery is changing in response to advances in internet
technologies and modern computing hardware. Signalware SF is a server farm-enabling
product suite that maps traditional telecom core network applications into high
performance, low cost, IT-style deployment models.
Signalware SF includes Signalware SP - Signaling Services Platform and Signalware
TC - Thin Client Application Server software that can be installed on the server
of your choice, and Signalware LB - Signaling Load Balancer, a packaged (Sun Netra)
network element that includes signaling gateway functionality and extends internet
router and load balancing functions into the signaling application space.
By enabling a modern rack-and-stack services architecture using off-the-shelf commodity
servers, Ulticom brings the strategy and benefits of the Internet to the telecom
network core. Signalware SF uses Ulticom Application-Ready products to enable service
creation, and Network-Ready products to provide network integration, message steering,
and server farm capabilities.
Signalware SF performs transaction distribution via dynamic load sharing, and enables
the combination of multiple computing platforms and scaling of services through
the use of logical network elements.
