Integration of industry’s best VoIP switch and market leading phone
system simplifies voice deployments with superior quality and renowned
reliability
HUNTSVILLE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 28, 2015--
ADTRAN®,
Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), today announced it has received ShoreTel
Innovation Network interoperability certification for the ADTRAN
NetVanta® switch portfolio. ADTRAN is the only partner in the Innovation
Network to have a complete, end-to-end
solution set certified to support requirements from point of
demarcation with enterprise session border controllers (eSBCs) all the
way to the LAN with Ethernet switches. The integration of ADTRAN
solution sets and ShoreTel’s phone system provides Value Added Resellers
(VARs), managed service providers (MSPs) and carriers streamlined access
to a robust, high-quality Voice over IP (VoIP) solution portfolio that
offers advanced ease-of-use and reliability for any enterprise or
business networking environment.
“The ShoreTel Innovation Network guarantees our partners seamless
interoperability and cutting-edge capabilities as they build and deploy
hardware, software and services,” said Chad Horton, manager of
innovation and network services at ShoreTel. “It’s exciting to add
another market-leading ADTRAN solution to our Innovation Network. These
additions allow partners to access best-in-class technology that is easy
to manage and meets our high standards for customer satisfaction.”
The ADTRAN portfolio of Ethernet switches leads the industry in advanced
voice fidelity, reliability and usability during installation and
management activities. Traditional switch vendors are building products
without focusing on the demanding application needs of VoIP. In
contrast, ADTRAN is maintaining a sharp focus on voice quality to
provide a stronger foundation for VoIP business communications. With
ADTRAN switches, resellers and service providers are able to gain better
control of the network, accelerate deployments, optimize customer
experiences and avoid issues like dropped calls or inconsistent voice
quality. The interoperability certification ensures that ADTRAN and
ShoreTel solutions will provide seamless quoting, deployment and
management processes for partners, in addition to offering proven
reliability. All of these benefits enable partners to realize revenue
faster and increase end-customer satisfaction.
“ADTRAN remains the worldwide leader in IP business gateways and has
consistently expanded the industry’s best VoIP switch portfolio. By
combining our solution set with ShoreTel’s business UC platform, we are
empowering the market with the best tools to deliver high-quality voice
services while simplifying infrastructure and streamlining deployments.
The pre-integrated solution reduces costs of VoIP rollouts and improves
margins, allowing VARs, MSPs and carriers to focus on maintaining a
competitive edge in the market,” said Todd Lattanzi, director of product
management for ADTRAN’s Enterprise Networks Division.
