Data Connection Advances SIP Interoperability at SIPit22 Test Event
London, UK: April 21, 2008. Data Connection Limited (DCL), the world's
leading independent provider of communications protocol software, announced
today that it has successfully participated in the SIPit22 interoperability
test event, which was held on April 14-18 at the University of New Hampshire
InterOperability Lab in Durham, NH. DCL brought its market leading portable
SIP stack, DC-SIP, to the event along with its SigComp toolkit, a complementary
product for DC-SIP that allows signaling transmission in bandwidth constrained
environments, such as wireless or mobile applications.
DC-SIP is a complete package of portable source code, reference applications
and designs, test applications, and customization tools. Used by many of the
world's largest manufacturers of VoIP, Multimedia, and IMS equipment,
DC-SIP leverages a highly available and scaleable architecture.
The goal of the SIPit events is to refine both the SIP protocol and the implementations
of the numerous companies participating. The week-long event, which is held
twice a year, enables participating vendors to prove interoperability with
as many other vendors as possible. SIPit22 had over 70 SIP implementations
including application servers, B2BUAs, Proxies, and end points.
Data Connection is a frequent participant in SIPit testing having attended
12 of the last 15 events. Data Connection utilizes the testing to advance interoperability
and strengthen its latest enhancements to DC-SIP.
