TeleBermuda International Ltd. (TBI) said this week it has deployed a complete IP multimedia subsystem-ready architecture from Sonus to support the service offerings of its next-generation network.

TBI’s offerings will include wholesale voice service, converged voice and data solutions and international long-distance service to the residential and business market. The network transition was completed in April and the operator has plans to expand service into additional markets including the Cayman Islands.

TBI is deploying a full suite of Sonus’ IMS-ready solutions, including Sonus’ GSX4000 Open Services Switch (a compact VoIP switch) and the ASX Feature Server. It will also use Sonus’ Network Border Switch for addressing session control, PSTN gateway services and security requirements from a single system.

In addition to its international long-distance voice service, the 10-year old TBI offers TBiNET, a dedicated Internet service; International Private Leased Circuits; International Frame Relay Service; a Server Co-location facility; business continuity and disaster recovery services.

Last week, Synergy Research Group named Sonus the market share leader worldwide as well as in the individual markets of the U.S. and Japan. In its latest report, “Q1 2006 Service Provider VoIP U.S. Market Shares,” Synergy reported that Sonus increased its position in the U.S. high-density gateway market to 36.2%. Synergy also reported that Sonus held a solid lead in Japan with 45.9% of the total service provider VoIP infrastructure market. According to the report, Sonus also holds almost 87% of the total VoIP high-density gateway segment.
