Carrier-grade Open SoftSwitching

The Atelis AccessBoard is an integrated hardware-software turnkey infrastructure. It runs on a Digium®/Asterisk® switching core, Linux and IBM platforms which combine to provide exceptional reliability and performance. Atelis modules manage such applications as billing, provisioning, switching, Class 5 services and a host of other standard and special-purpose applications custom-tailored to meet individual customer requirements.

Less CAPEX - more services

By aggregating the combined power of Class 4 services, the richness of Class 5 services and IP telephony into a single unified infrastructure, Atelis AccessBoard enables carriers to deploy new services rapidly - without the need to invest in additional IN/NGN network environments. Atelis AccessBoard is also an ideal solution for green-field operators wishing to lower initial setup costs for new deployments. CAPEX is reduced by an estimated one-third compared to competing solutions.

Lower OPEX - greater flexibility through decentralization

Atelis AccessBoard incorporates the proprietary Atelis BioCluster™ , based upon a P2P protocol, avoiding the need for centralized information storage. Atelis BioCluster enables decentralization of configuration information across the network - all nodes in the cluster maintain the configuration structure. Configuration of a newly introduced cluster node is automatic. This results in practically plug-n-play installation and maintenance procedures, while offering near-linear scalability and growth, yielding estimated savings of 25% over typical operating costs.
