MetroCast has deployed Cedar Point's SAFARI C3 Multimedia Switching System for VoIP services as part of MetroCast's digital cable and Internet triple play services in the state of Mississippi. Cedar Point is replacing Metaswitch, and is the exclusive switching vendor throughout the MetroCast service footprint.

MetroCast recently entered the Mississippi market through an acquisition and is planning to install a fiber optic network to bridge North and South Mississippi enabling them to deliver enhanced digital services to Mississippi customers. MetroCast deployed Cedar Point's packet-based SAFARI C3 Multimedia Switching System for part of a bundle of services that includes voice to approximately 50,000 total subscribers.

Cedar Point has shipped more than four million SAFARI C3 lines to customers in the Americas, the Caribbean and Europe. SAFARI C3 supports up to 250,000 lines of capacity in less than a cubic yard of space, incorporating all of the components that make up the voice switching infrastructure. It is being deployed for residential and business services by a diverse customer base that includes Cable System Operators, CLECs, Wireless Operators and Universities.
