KIT Communications Enhances Port Leasing Solution with PhoenixSoft Cirrus Softswitch
 

Phoenix, Arizona...January 7, 2009...PhoenixSoft, Inc., a pioneering provider of next-generation communications platforms for converged networks, announced today that KIT Communications, Inc. (“KIT”) has deployed the Cirrus Softswitch platform for its port leasing application.

Headquartered in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, KIT offers a port leasing program to companies that do not want to own their own telecommunications switch. Instead of investing capital for an equipment purchase, companies can lower overhead costs by leasing KIT’s switch technology on a per-port basis. In addition to port leasing, KIT provides its customers valuable assistance with the start-up and long-term management of their products and services. Typical applications for leasing customers include Class 4 and Class 5 VoIP solutions, pre-paid and post-paid calling, and wholesale carrier routing.

“We made this choice because PhoenixSoft has the tools and reporting that our port leasing customers now demand,” said Kevin Gunderson, president and general manager for KIT Communications. “In addition, we now have the ability to provide our customers with proven pre-paid and call-back features, as well as technologically advanced SIP, IP-PBX and IP Phone applications.”

“KIT has worked with many technology vendors but has had the best success with our Cirrus Softswitch,” said Paul Amick, PhoenixSoft’s co-founder. “We’ve been able to deliver a reliable network softswitch that fits KIT’s port leasing application perfectly. “We have known the personnel from KIT for many years and it’s a pleasure to have them with us as a PhoenixSoft customer.”

PhoenixSoft will be exhibiting its Cirrus Softswitch at the upcoming Internet Telephony Expo East, February 2-4, 2009, Miami Beach Convention Center, Booth 927.
