Swisscom has implemented the Patton solution in its Business Connect VoIP service, as detailed in a recent Patton white paper (http://www.patton.com/info/index.asp?t=27).

Daniel Suter, the Business Connect Product Manager at Swisscom said, “Patton's ESBR accelerates certification of customer IP PBX and UC systems by an order of magnitude. From testing to implementation, the Patton team has been extremely responsive.”

The award-winning Patton solution enables telecom carrier-providers to:

·        Remotely provision, manage, and control BroadWorks SIP trunks using Patton Enterprise Session Border Controllers (E-SBCs).

·        Lower installation and turn-up costs with simple, streamlined installation. Patton CPE provides a split configuration domain that ensures secure service demarcation.
