Media gateways are a fundamental building block of voice communications networks, interconnecting legacy TDM voice networks and equipment with voice-over-IP networks. Found in service provider and enterprise networks, media gateways range in scale and capabilities, meeting a range of diverse applications. However, with the increasing adoption of SIP and VoIP networks, what role will media gateways play going forward? Will they become obsolete and join the VCR in the dustbin of technology? Or will they evolve to take on new roles in converged voice networks? Welcome to “The Future of Media Gateways”, our 23rd monthly webinar, covering technical, business and partner topics to help service providers and enterprises build better voice networks. During this session, we take a closer look at the market for media gateways, some recent innovations, and a number of new use cases. We’ll finish up with a summary of the media gateway portfolio from TelcoBridges and leave time for your questions.
