'M3G' Wireless Gateway Product

US : Tecore Wireless Systems, a supplier of 3G and next-generation wireless networks, announced a new wireless gateway product that it says optimizes switching and media translation for wireless networks.

Tecore said the M3G (Managed Mobility Media Gateway) works in conjunction with the company's SoftMSC switching platform to provide an integrated call server/media gateway platform that offers a configurable set of media and signaling interfaces for wireless networks in carrier or enterprise applications.

The M3G, the company added, is optimized for wireless networks by directly providing the necessary interfaces for connectivity to base station equipment, including control protocols, bearer traffic over TDM, or native IP using any of the standardized wireless voice coding formats. Support includes AMR, GSM-EFR, and GSM-FR for GSM, EVRC, QCELP 8k/13k for CDMA, and ITU G.711, G726, G723.1, and G.729AB for SIP-based VoIP applications. The M3G supports a variety of signaling alternatives, including MGCP, MEGACO (H.248), and SIP, thus supporting multiple deployment configurations.

"The M3G is an exciting new product that allows Tecore to leverage its expertise in developing and integrating multi-technology solutions," said Harry Lewis, vice president of sales at Tecore. "The media gateway capability builds on Tecore's success in developing and delivering products that can be rapidly and cost effectively deployed in either 2.5G or 3G networks. Added to Tecore's line of switching products, the M3G enables operators and enterprises to deploy true technology-agnostic networks as the industry continues the evolution towards the IMS architecture."

The M3G is built on a Linux platform that supports a wide range of interface types and densities. The product features Tecore's CoreAccess, a Java-based management application that simplifies element, network, provisioning, and configuration management, the company noted in a release.
