REDWOOD SHORES, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 12/09/14 -- Oracle (NYSE: ORCL)

News Summary
The increasing demand for services and applications, such as Voice over LTE (VoLTE), Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) trunking, and Voice over IP (VoIP) interconnect, requires a session border controller capable of sophisticated mediation and management of IP multimedia traffic. Oracle's Acme Packet 4600 midrange network platform delivers best-in-class performance and configuration capabilities with its tightly integrated encryption and transcoding in a single network module. This provides communications service providers (CSPs) with a cost-effective and scalable solution for delivering their next-generation services.

News Facts

• Oracle today announced the release of the Acme Packet 4600 -- the newest member of its market-leading session border controller (SBC) platform family. Acme Packet 4600 delivers a comprehensive and powerful range of network traffic controls for new, sophisticated communications services like VoLTE, Rich Communication Services (RCS), and high-definition video calling.
• The new network platform delivers two to four times the capacity of previous-generation midrange systems. It also offers the same software, high availability, and manageability inherent in the Acme Packet platform family, enabling CSPs to implement it without disruption while reducing capital and operational costs.
• With Acme Packet 4600's unique combination of modularity and configuration flexibility, CSPs can seamlessly integrate new services and capabilities into their networks -- all while continuing to operate within their current network infrastructure.
• The new solution is highly cost-effective, combining advanced capabilities such as encryption and transcoding, as well as 1 gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10 GbE interfaces, in a single network interface unit (NIU), significantly reducing rack space and energy consumption, driving cost savings.
• Oracle is a leader in the communications platform market, built upon the proven Acme Packet operating software. Acme Packet 4600 is designed to leverage this same technology, providing CSPs with the manageability and reliability they have come to expect from Oracle.
