TMN deploy SnowShore in 3G videomail service

October 19, 2004

Brooktrout Technology, a supplier of media processing and call control products, announced that its SnowShore Media Server has been deployed by TMN, Portugal's mobile operator, as part of their new 3G Videomail service. Brooktrout partnered with Openwave Systems to integrate its SnowShore Media Server with Openwave Video Voicemail and Openwave Video Portal to allow TMN's 3G subscribers to view and purchase video content as well as send, receive, store and manage voice and video messages.

Siemens Communications, together with Openwave Systems, has supplied the 3G/UMTS Video Mailbox System and a Video Termination Gateway as an end-to- end-solution for TMN.

This deployment will enable us not only to launch a new and appealing 3G service, but also to benefit from the reliability and efficiency of a single platform for multiple messaging services," said Fernando Rodrigues, general manager of corporate business at TMN.

Brooktrout's SnowShore Media Server provides flexible media processing resources that can support a broad range of applications, from basic messaging and multiparty conferencing to prepaid services and network announcements. Because it utilizes small-footprint, industry-standard server platforms and standards-based IP protocols, the SnowShore Media Server can leverage the ongoing evolution of network architectures and processor technology to deliver a flexible media processing solution for next-generation IP applications.

This innovative new 3G video messaging solution is built on Openwave's video voice-mail platform, an open software platform for the development of next-generation messaging services. Designed to support the integration of third-party technologies and systems over standard-based interfaces, the solution offers operators clear, competitive advantages over competing communications technologies by delivering compelling voice/data services across a single, flexible, highly scaleable platform.

"Our collaboration with Brooktrout allows mobile operators and their subscribers to realize the benefits of IP, giving new profit potential to service providers and higher value personalized services to their end users," said Rich Wong, general manager of messaging at Openwave Systems.

"Brooktrout's partnership with Openwave makes it possible for service providers to deliver groundbreaking new video services by extending the capabilities of Openwave's proven messaging platform for e-mail, voice mail, and multimedia," said Eric Giler, president of Brooktrout.
