CounterPath announces the launch of NomadicPBX a turnkey platform for enabling converged mobile and broadband SIP voice, messaging and presence services. Available immediately, NomadicPBX gives wireless carriers and mobile virtual network operators a cost-effective way to launch enterprise fixed-mobile convergence services.

The NomadicPBX application is a presence-based, fixed and mobile voice, and instant messaging/short message service technology mashup with a select set of enterprise-ready features. Based on CounterPath’s Network Convergence Gateway platform and leveraging the company’s patented technology, NomadicPBX enables wireless operators and other service providers to extend their feature sets into small and medium enterprises, which currently account for one-third of all hosted VoIP deployments, according to a recent Infonetics Research survey.

The NomadicPBX’s network-based features let operators push deeper into the business market, creating new revenue streams and differentiating themselves based on innovative services rather than price alone. Carrier customers that currently deploy CounterPath’s NCG platform and Bria client can use the NomadicPBX configuration to create services relevant to other market segments, too.

NomadicPBX uses presence for status updates and real-time management of call and message delivery across a wide variety of endpoint types, from PCs to feature phones to smartphones, all from any vendor. This flexibility means enterprises can integrate standard mobile network services into their enterprise communications architecture by leveraging their existing devices. End users benefit from a single number and identity, which lets them be reached immediately from any mobile, desk phone or VoIP softphone, including a client running on a mobile phone. This flexibility allows enterprises to implement more efficient, cost-effective and responsive communications within their organizations and with customers and business partners.

NomadicPBX also:

• Enables convenient extension dialing such as short-dialing or speed calling from any mobile handset
• Supports core calling features found in most PBX solutions
• Operates completely independent of the enterprise’s IT infrastructure, eliminating CIO and IT manager security and support concerns
• Improves productivity and lowers costs for mobile workforces

Donovan Jones will present a live demonstration of NomadicPBX today, April 19, at the eComm Conference in the San Francisco Airport Marriott Hotel at 12:17 p.m. in Salon E.
