Extending lifecycle of SS7 equipment
"Carriers/ISPs can offer new innovative services on existing SS7 equipment by providing a bridge to SIP based media and application servers. Examine how you can build innovative new services on incumbent SS7 equipment."
SS7 Switch to SIP Media
As shown in the diagram an SS7 Media Gateway passes SS7 calls, both signalling and voice/data (if appropriate) to a SIP based media server, allowing carriers/ISPs to rapidly deploy new services such as IVR, conferencing, speaker identification, DTMF tone detection.
Typical incumbent SS7 switches
- Ericsson AXE10
- Siemens EWSD
- ZTE
- Nortel DMS
This allows carriers/ISPs to take full advantage of the latest industry leading SIP based services and controlling technologies i.e. VoiceXML, SOAP, Java/J2EE.
SIP Media Servers or Application Servers.
- Asterisk
- IP Media
- ProsodyX
- SIP SER

SS7 ISDN switch
A second configuration to consider is to deploy a bridge between the SS7 and ISDN as many equipment manufacturers provide their platform solely with an ISDN interface i.e. video platforms, IVR, lawful intercept applications etc.
As shown the SVI-9225 SS7 - ISDN Protocol Converter provides a seamless interface between SS7 and ISDN. The strength of the SVI-9225 as a bridge is that it provides a transparent switch for the bearer channels carrying voice and data.
The SVI-9225 switches any bearer channel on any E1/T1 to any other bearer channel on any other E1/T1 - it does not terminate or transcode bearer channels, making this an ideal application to seamlessly pass voice and data from an ISDN network into an SS7 network.

- Siemens EWSD
