Xten (R) Adds Full Motion Video to VoIP With New SIP Softphone
SANTA CLARA, Sept. 13 - Xten (OTCBB: XNWK), a
provider of SIP-based video and voice over IP softphones and software, today
announced the launch of eyeBeam, a video SIP softphone. eyeBeam supports open
standards video utilizing SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and the H.263
video codec, which supports video transmissions that are television-like in
their quality. This enables service providers to easily deliver high-quality
videoconferencing via IP to their customers, thus opening new IP revenue
streams.
The eyeBeam feature set includes an array of robust SIP telephony
features offered in the award-winning X-PRO SIP softphone, including call
transfer/forward, caller ID, and 10-point conferencing. eyeBeam enhances this
feature set with the addition of acoustic echo cancellation, voice activity
detection, adaptive jitter buffer and message waiting indicator.
Xten's Rapid Branding process enables multiple service operators to
realize a quick time-to-market softphone solution built on open standards
technology. eyeBeam is also available as an SDK that includes the following
low-level APIs: Audio, Video, HTTP, STUN, SIP Stack, SIP Call Control, SDP,
RTP, ICE and DNS. The eyeBeam SDK will provide carriers with maximum control
of their customized SIP endpoints.
"eyeBeam is one of the few video SIP softphones in the industry that can
be readily deployed today by the leading providers in the VoIP market,"
explains Erik Lagerway, president and chief operating officer of Xten. "Xten
has realized amazing recognition with service providers worldwide from our
voice software. Now we are taking it to the next level with open standards
video."
Xten's softphone technology uniquely incorporates innovative features
such as advanced, plug-and-play firewall traversal technology and the latest
protocols such as Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) while also
supporting emerging applications such as wireless VoIP and video.
The softphone software is specifically designed to allow service
providers and their customers to save on both equipment and maintenance costs
by eliminating the need for additional network hardware such as servers and
gateways to support efficient call routing. In addition, Xten's softphone
technology incorporates one of the greatest numbers of codecs to optimize the
quality of VoIP based on bandwidth availability and to support fast-growing
applications such as IP video.
Xten's softphones are carrier-grade IP telephony SIP endpoints,
delivering the quality of service and features that large providers require to
serve their customer base. Xten has a feature-rich FREE SIP softphone dubbed
X-Lite, in addition to the fully featured X-PRO commercial softphone. Xten's
softphones are fully RFC3261 (SIP), RTP/RTCP (RFC 1889) and SDP (RFC 3264)
compliant. They are available for Windows (Windows 98SE/ME/NT 4/2000/XP/CE),
Mac OS X and Pocket PC operating systems.
