Distributed MTP3 stack
for fault tolerant comms
Force Computers has enhanced its StackWare telecomms protocol software with the addition of a distributed MTP3 layer to the SS7 stack
Force Computers has enhanced its StackWare telecomms protocol software with the addition of a distributed MTP3 (DMTP3) layer to the SS7 (Signalling System No 7) stack. Along with an optional SS7 configuration and monitoring tool - StackWare Manager - available to tailor SS7 layers for use with Force's PowerQUICC II based telecomms PCI mezzanine card (PMC) controllers and SS7 server blades, DMTP3 offers fault tolerance, high reliability and scalable performance.

Italtel to apply central office platform
Italtel will base its next-generation iMSS media servers, media gateway servers and signalling servers on Force's new Centellis CO 31KX AdvancedTCA modular communications platform
Featuring MTP1, MTP2 and DMTP3, the protocol package supports a range of embedded carrier-class signalling systems suitable for different SS7-based applications, from signal transfer points and service control points in broadband wireline to third-generation (3G) wireless nodes.
Using an XML or HTML browser, configuration and monitoring of SS7 layers can be accomplished with the StackWare Manager.
This distributed architecture is ideal for stringent telecomms/networking equipment demands.
As Force's newest development package for telecomms and networking, the DMTP3/StackWare Manager provides a complete, out-of-the-box carrier-grade signalling solution.
It builds on the StackWare package foundation by offering more bandwidth and faster messaging over broadband and narrowband SS7 hardware.
