U4EA (News - Alert) Technologies, provider of integrated access technology for converged communications, unveiled its FusionView 700 Element Management System (EMS). By centralizing the configuration, management and monitoring of voice and data traffic, FusionView allows converged networks to be easily and economically scaled.

 

FusionView provides hosted service providers the ability to manage tens, hundreds or thousands of U4EA Fusion Multi-service Business Gateways (MSBGs) inexpensively. They can do this while they scale their unified communications (UC) or voice over IP (VoIP) networks. FusionView is scheduled for release in the second quarter of 2008.

 

“FusionView addresses a market need for scalability, simplified monitoring and troubleshooting, and comprehensive reporting. In today’s highly competitive environment, our service provider customers and prospects need to increase their revenue and lower their operating cost,” said Jim Greenway (News - Alert), VP of marketing and products at U4EA, in a statement.

 

Greenway continued: “FusionView gives them the tools they need to guarantee the customer’s quality of experience. This reduces their customer turnover and increases ROI by reducing the time required for technicians to configure, install and troubleshoot service issues.”

 

For service providers and enterprises seeking faster installation and troubleshooting, FusionView is a critical component. It also provides the ability of improve monitoring and managing of VoIP call quality. FusionView provides considerable operational cost savings by reducing installation, configuration and trouble call resolution times. With FusionView, service providers and enterprises can immediately begin monitoring performance and ensure trouble-free operation of their unified communications services.

 

The Fusion Series is being launched at a time when U4EA is rapidly expanding its next generation MSBG product portfolio and related offerings. Consisting of products such as Fusion 200 and 400 series, these provide functions of a router, switch, firewall, IDS, session controller, VoIP Gateway (News - Alert), QoS and OA&M in one device. Carriers and service providers use the Fusion 1000 Series, which is a family of signaling gateways to address legacy and next generation protocol conversion.
