Aculab launches next-gen media-processing resources platform.

Aculab, a provider of computer-telephony hardware and software for integration into high-performance communications solutions, has announced the launch of its next-generation media-processing resources platform, Prosody X.

Prosody X is a card designed for media processing in IP-based networks with TDM connectivity as an option. Designed around an IP core, its architecture makes the product distributable among different chassis platforms offering resilience and scalability as well as "helping future-proof solutions as they move to IP."

Prosody X is a new benchmark that offers significant flexibility to developers who can select the functions required to scale a wide range of low- to high-density applications. It is a highly configurable card that combines Aculab's media-processing resources, IP telephony and TDM digital network access functions.

Preliminary channel counts for fully configured cards with basic speech processing are running at 600 for the PCI product variant. It features a rich mix of basic and advanced speech, fax and data features, making Prosody X "an extremely attractive option for any developer looking to create large-scale VoIP applications, from simple IVRs to complex blended contact centers."
