TOPEX Shows Its Contribution for the IP-Technology Improvement in ATM Industry

TOPEX, as a EUROCAE WG67 member, proved its experience in integrating VoIP in ATM industry taking part at the 2nd phase of Air Traffic Management VoIP Plugtests events organized by ETSI in Sophia Antipolis, France.

It is well known that EUROCAE WG67 defines standards guaranteeing ATM VoIP interoperability and for each member of this group is a great opportunity to participate in forum meetings where technical specifications regarding the most recent technologies, systems and equipments are developed.

This Plugtest event, organized between 30th March and 3rd April, performed all the remaining SIP Telephone and Radio interface interoperability tests compliant with the current EUROCAE WG67 works. The event reinforced interoperability by enabling the identification of areas for improvements, by detecting errors and ambiguities within the current draft standards at the earliest stage, and finally speeding up the process of providing ATM VoIP products to the market in order to contribute to the implementation of the future European ATM system.
