Chris Gravett, Sales and Marketing Director at Aculab, said, "After all the hype and excitement within the VoIP market in 1999-2000 and the disappointment and scepticism that followed, 2003 is beginning to see confidence building, with VoIP technology now being accepted and deployed.
Developers taking advantage of this promotion have the opportunity to take part in a focused workshop and benefit from our extensive experience over recent years".
Aculab's VoIP product portfolio includes IP telephony cards in either PCI or cPCI form factor.
These standards based cards offer up to 120 channels with low latency, using H.323 or SIP, in a single card slot.
Unlike competing products, Aculab's IP telephony cards come with a single API, which is just a small extension to the generic API that existing customers will be familiar with.
The same API library is used for all digital network access cards, making porting and compiling of applications easy for customers.
For a new user all that is required is to master a couple of API commands or function calls.
Uniquely, the API provides easy control of the protocol stack, RTP packet handling and voice compression, from within a single interface.
For new and active developers alike this makes it easy to leverage IP telephony through existing applications, which can be ported from current platforms with minimal time and effort.
The IP telephony cards can be used as a means of moving traffic between dissimilar networks as in a media or signalling gateway and also to leverage existing IVR or unified messaging applications.
For developers seeking to provide IP telephony features in new solutions, or to enhance applications and replicate existing functionality, Aculab has implemented several H.450.2 call transfer cases.
The promotion is currently available in Europe for a limited time period.
