Your IT - Home IT

Alcatel and billing software specialist Amdocs have signed a letter of intent for cooperation to address the requirements of communications service providers looking to deploy IPTV and other next generation broadband IP services. The two companies will work to deliver "a joint end-to-end solution that will allow CSPs to offer triple play bundles of voice, data and video services, making deployments faster and easier, and reducing operational costs."

They plan to integrate the Amdocs IP Convergence Solution for IPTV with Alcatel's suite of IPTV offerings to ensure seamless connectivity and interoperability between platforms, leveraging each other's functionality across the solutions. The two companies will also create a joint architectural map and service offerings, and plan to engage in joint sales and marketing efforts. They have begun development of an Interoperability lab that will "simulate real-world production environments and foster the creation of a joint end-to-end offering". It will house "diverse components of the combined solution that will span from the customer premise to the BSS layer [including] the infrastructure, full broadband access network, switching, routing, transport and applications."
