Our first-to-market position in numerous voice, ATM, and IP developments has helped shape entire industries. But the advent of broadband technologies and services is now forcing these industries to adapt. Government agencies need to adapt existing access networks to a more IP-centric and high-speed core. Enterprises of every size are adapting to the reality of converged IP services to the desktop, managed from within, or outsourced to innovative service providers. And Service providers must adapt to the commoditization of broadband services while simultaneously generating revenue from profitable new services.
By building on this global need to adapt, NET is producing next-generation platforms that fuel these high-growth trends. A comprehensive IP telephony solution, our VX Series allows public and private network operators to leverage the cost savings and functional benefits of unified messaging and unified communications as well as simplifing the network by converging their PBX voice traffic onto a single converged data network. It's the first IP telephony platform to offer a Session Border Controller (SBC) that integrates SIP and H.323 call control, interoperability and protocol conversion, SS7/C7 signaling, interactive voice response, TDM/Ethernet media conversion, billing record generation, remote survivability, and secure voice (STU/FNBDT) traffic handling.
NET's recent acquisition of Quintum Technologies as a wholly owned subsidary reflects our strategy to broaden our VoIP product solutions. Quintum's Tenor products add further scale to our growing VoIP business and puts us in a better position to address enterprise and government customer requirements. NET and Quintum share a common vision for the converged unified messaging and unified communications markets. Our technologies, product strategy and sales focus are highly complementary.
