Momentum, a leading provider of private label digital voice service to operators throughout the U.S., and Integrated Broadband Services, LLC (IBBS), the technology leader providing the BroadBand Explorer (BBX) diagnostics and provisioning software, today announced that their integrated solution – created to ease the deployment of digital voice services – will be demonstrated at The Cable Show, May 18-20 in New Orleans.
According to a new 2008 survey commissioned by IBBS, 90 percent of small-to-medium sized cable operators feel that adding digital voice to their data and video services is a business imperative.
The previously announced joint service by Momentum and IBBS answers this need and has been custom created to remove the technical complexities around provisioning and EMTA configuration. Momentum and IBBS customers can leverage a single, integrated platform to order and provision voice and data services. This technology integration means that small and mid-sized cable operators will be able to provide their customers with the equivalent of Tier 1-level service with less complexity on the back end.
“We announced our partnership with IBBS earlier in the year and now look forward to proving the concept at The Cable Show,” said Alan Creighton, president and CEO of Momentum. “We strongly believe that once smaller operators realize how simple it can be to offer their customers voice in a bundled package, these companies will press forward to accomplish their goals.”
“Our integrated solution, which removes technical complexity for the operator and leads to rapid deployments, is just the beginning,” said Dave Keil, CEO of IBBS. “IBBS and Momentum’s efforts together have helped to create an elegant, best-in-class solution and we work to make our customers’ networks work seamlessly.”
Both CEOs will be available on May 18-20 to answer questions from the media and to talk with prospective customers: Momentum – Booth #2711; IBBS – Booth #1229.
