The SIP protocol was designed in support of a fully distributed architecture where different features are provided by servers that again communicate among themselves using the SIP protocol. There is a strict separation between Media and Signaling, which allows a globally scalable system to be built with the necessary redundancy and resiliency. Media streams, once setup, flow directly between end-points (phones and gateways) without any requirement for media to go through a central signaling server.

Highlights


  • Modular: 12 different server components that can coexist on one server HW or be distributed to different systems
  • Resilient: Offers HA redundancy between call control components
  • Scalability: Load balancing using the DNS SRV system
  • SIP Proxy based: sipXecs is not based on a B2BUA but implements a true SIP proxy architecture
  • Better Voice Quality: Media goes direct point-to-point between the end points and never through the call control system
  • Standard SIP: sipXecs is all about a standards compliant implementation
  • Plug & Play Management: Phones are managed plug & play from within the system
  • IT Integration: LDAP, SOAP, and database integration. System looks like and operates like an IT application
  • No Special HW: sipXecs does not require any special HW. A standard Intel server will do
  • Features: Yes, there are lots of them
  • Roadmap: Yes, got a clear and public roadmap
