REDCOM Unveils New SLICE® IP Command & Control: An advanced IP Communication Core

Building on more than 30 years of telecommunication experience, innovation and customer service, REDCOM Laboratories, Inc. unveils the new SLICE® IP Command & Control.

The SLICE IP is an advanced IP communication core powered by TRANSip®, REDCOM's VoIP technology suite that provides an innovative IP communications solution. TRANSip integrates key IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) elements in one single platform, bringing call management functionality while offering call setup, control, termination, and directory services for IP subscribers through the industry standard architecture, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), for seamless interoperability.

The SLICE IP offers features

The SLICE IP offers features and interoperability highlighted as follows: SIP-based VoIP capabilities - up to 2,000 SIP subscribers (per unit) SIP trunks & built-in compression - to manage bandwidth usage External Database Interface - enhancing administration support Host Control Interface - for additional call management capabilities SNMP monitoring MLPP and 619a - for priority and preemption AS-SIP - for resource priorities, ensuring system and network access and control Modem over IP (V.150.1) - for secure end instrument interoperability Fax over IP (T.38) - for end instrument interoperability Voice Mail System Interface - a flexible interface to an external voice mail device Secure Socket Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) - for a common encryption layer

The SLICE IP's built-in, flexible IP compression methods help warfighters manage IP SATCOM bandwidth. The SLICE IP's advanced standards-based IP trunk features help reduce the SATCOM bandwidth consumed in IP-based voice communications. Considerable SATCOM bandwidth can be saved during modem-driven secure voice conversations by using SLICE IP's integrated V.150.1 standard. Advanced IP trunk features manage the quantity of calls allowed over SATCOM links, as well as the amount of bandwidth a user can consume.

The SLICE IP provides a Multi-Level Precedence

The SLICE IP provides a Multi-Level Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) software capability (including ANSI 619a) for end-to-end warfighter communications. This essential element of command and control (C2) ensures that the most important calls get through and are able to "tandem" and deliver priority calls to the end location and warfighter.

Since its debut in 2005, REDCOM's SLICE® product line has offered the telecommunications industry a powerful feature set in a slim (1U) integrated solution. The SLICE® IP powered by TRANSip® brings the value of REDCOM's experience in telecom and couples it with next generation VoIP call manager capabilities and technology, creating a highly effective communication solution to the industry.
