Dublin, Mar 31, 2008 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- TKLC | news | PowerRating | PR Charts -- Tekelec announced it had launched a four-part Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) educational webinar series, with one session planned for each quarter in 2008.

With the acquisitions of iptelorg, a developer of SIP routing software, and Estacado Systems, a software development company instrumental in the creation of SIP, along with continuing traction for its NGN products, Tekelec stated that it is well positioned to help telecom operators transition to SIP and IP-based networks.

The first in the series of SIP educational webinars took place on March 18, and was led by Jiri Kuthan, assistant vice president for SIP services and a SIP expert. Kuthan, who joined Tekelec with the iptelorg acquisition, offered a brief overview on the history of SIP, including definitions, standards and use cases on voice, messaging, presence and conferencing. Highlights included:

- Over 1,100 registrants and more than 500 attendees, about half of whom were employees of Telecom Operators - A global audience representing all regions, with about half the attendees from North America

"It was a unique experience for me because it is rare in my region to get such a valuable session online that is relevant for a global audience, said Asif Iqbal, Senior Manager Operations Core Networks for Mobilink, a cellular service provider in Pakistan. The content was clear and informative, the use cases were relevant, and overall, the session provided a great overview to SIP. I look forward to future SIP webinars from Tekelec.

The second webinar of the series is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, June 3rd, and will focus on SIP protocol, procedures, and architecture. This session will be led by Robert Sparks, who joined Tekelec from Estacado Systems. Sparks coordinates the industry's interoperability event, the SIPit. He also chairs the IETF's SIMPLE working group, which defines extensions to SIP for Presence and Instant Messaging. He was a contributing editor to RFC 3261, which defines the SIP protocol, and the author of several updates to the core protocol and its extensions, including RFCs 3515 and 3892, which extend SIP to allow a rich set of call transfer capabilities. Sparks is also a member of the board of directors of the SIP Forum.

The remaining SIP educational webinars will discuss SIP deployment, SIP security and services, and will take place during the third and fourth quarters, respectively.

Tekelec provides signaling solutions that enable the interworking of different network applications, technologies and protocols, providing a smooth transition to next-generation networks.
