Overview

Thrupoint Fusion Service Broker acts as a central point of orchestration for the various applications and forms of communication within an organization.

This next-generation SIP session management platform provides a framework for rapid deployment of new services without adversely affecting other elements within the network. Simple adaptations provide rapid interoperability between vendors’ communications systems so that IT can protect existing network and device investments. Resident and third party applications can be chained together and invoked mid-session to create advanced services that ensure compliance with corporate or user driven policies. Centralization of user profiles, dial plans, routing, user registration and other functions all help to reduce the administrative workload for IT.
