Codatel Networks, an Australian IP telephony and converged communications systems provider, today announced the immediate availability of regionally-hosted wholesale and retail billing partitioning services to VoIP carriers and service providers. The capability, driven by the advanced and proven PortaSwitch VoIP call control/billing platform and hosted on Australian infrastructure, assures carriers in the Asia-Pacific region access to one of the best telecom systems on the market with no upfront capital investment.
Codatel develops, markets and supports innovative IP telephony and multi-platform converged communications systems to the full range of carriers, from Tier One to small and midsized companies. The privately-owned company, which also serves a range of retail customers, is well situated for helping IP-focused telecoms compete effectively in the Asia-Pacific region at minimal cost.
For virtually all new or existing telecoms in this part of the world, tapping into next-generation IP infrastructure meant going to wholesale providers in Europe or North America. Such distant solutions often introduce voice latency into customer calls—not a preferable situation by any means. Our PortaSwitch system, positioned much closer to our carriers’ intended client base, minimizes or eliminates this problem altogether.

PortaSwitch is capable of handling the complete call control and converged VoIP billing functions of a diversified digital services company, enabling wholesale VoIP carriers to deliver a wide variety of business models quickly and efficiently.
The comprehensive product consists of a real-time billing system, class 4 and 5 SIP softswitch, and application servers that deliver converged VoIP billing and provisioning, SIP call control, unified messaging, cloud PBX and hosted IP PBX, callback management, IVRs, conferencing and more.
Codatel Network’s implementation of PortaSwitch is further enhanced with the inclusion of PortaOne’s PortaBilling100 Advanced application. PortaBilling100 Advanced features simultaneous multiprocessing and a dedicated database architecture to improve performance within the core billing server.
Choosing PortaSwitch for this service offering was not a hard decision. It will clearly provide optimum value to our wholesale customers, and top quality to their end users. PortaSwitch has the reliability and robustness of very high-end systems that can cost millions to deploy—yet it is very competitively priced. For a telco to be competitive today, it must be able to adapt to market changes very quickly. PortaSwitch will allow us, and our customers, to deliver any kind of new service—simple or complex—with very little fuss or ongoing maintenance.
