Service Broker plays a key role in the evolution of Chunghwa’s Intelligent Network service architecture towards service convergence

CommunicAsia2011, Singapore – June 21, 2011 – Metaswitch Networks, a leading provider of carrier systems and communications software solutions, today announced that Chunghwa Telecom, Taiwan’s market leader in mobile, Internet and fixed line services, is deploying the Metaswitch Service Broker.

With Metaswitch, Chunghwa will be able to use a single platform to deliver services across both its legacy and IMS networks. These services will be delivered to subscribers on any network at the same time, without compromising IMS capabilities.
 
“The evolution of an Intelligent Network service architecture is an important process that we have planned for years,” said Dr. Chen, IN services project manager at Chunghwa Telecom Labs. “Metaswitch was selected after evaluation of a number of solution vendors for both their capabilities and cost. Since the award, we have worked closely with the Metaswitch team in proving out the solution and they have been very helpful in all phases of the project.”

“Tier 1 service providers like Chunghwa face tremendous challenges in service convergence,” said Graeme MacArthur, executive vice president at Metaswitch. “Operators have found that as their network evolves they require a more flexible, cost effective alternative to traditional ‘silo’ application connectivity models. We are pleased to help Chunghwa with this transformation.”
