Milton Keynes, 10 May 2010.  Cable provider KMS (Kabel, Medien & Servicegesellschaft), headquartered in Munich Germany, have transferred all Residential VoIP Telephony services to the DIGITALK NGN SIP Application Server.

KMS have been operating a residential primary line replacement service using Open SER, an open source technology for its voice service as part of its cable TV, internet and voice packages (operating under the cablesurf brand). However, the limitations of features and operational expenses of integration, maintenance and management have proved a costly overhead.

The integration of the DIGITALK SIP Application server allows KMS to offer a full class 5 feature set with DIGITALK’s Broadband Telephony application and consolidate all management and maintenance onto a single platform footprint, including DIGITALK’s integral Session Border Controller.

The migration to the SIP Application Server allows KMS to expand their value-added service portfolio to serve SME Business Customers utilising DIGITALK IP Virtual Office (IP Centrex solution) and Service Numbers for intelligent call routing and Number Translation Services.

Mathias Theisen, Managing Director of the KMS subsidiary Mediaport GmbH confirmed the reason for the change to a single DIGITALK solution: “While there were no commercial offerings available for SIP-based telephony over DOCSIS-networks, we now see that our choice for SIP was the right one. We truly appreciate Digitalk´s fully integrated and supported solution. Going forward this will simplify and streamline our operations.”
