InnoMedia has reached an agreement with Clearcable Networks to distribute InnoMedia ESBC products. This distribution agreement will allow Clearcable to deliver products anywhere in Canada. Clearcable is strategically located in Ontario and, with its focus on mid-market MSOs, it will be able to facilitate the adoption of Smart-DQoS technology as the premier solution to voice system bandwidth prioritization using InnoMedia's ESBC 8528-4B. The InnoMedia ESBC with Smart-DQoS is based on InnoMedia's exclusive Device-initiated DQoS technology.

The InnoMedia ESBC 8528-4B is an ideal demarcation solution for Cable Operators to deliver SIP Trunking and hosted voice telephony as well as broadband Internet service to enterprise customers. Located at the network edge, the ESBC 8528-4B enables NAT and firewall traversal, permitting VoIP traffic to enter the network while preventing unauthorized access. The ESBC 8528-4B supports SIP normalization and ensures interoperability with enterprise customer equipment, such as an IP-PBX or IP Phones. The ESBC, with an embedded cable modem, can support end-to-end QoS to allow MSOs to deliver uncompromised call quality for the first time. With Smart-DQoS technology, InnoMedia's ESBC 8528-4B establishes UGS service flows without requiring network Policy Servers, thus greatly simplifying network setup considerations for MSOs. Since its introduction earlier this year, this product has been acknowledged to dramatically improve voice quality for both hosted and on-premise VoIP services provided by MSOs.
