Paracon Strengthens Voice Over IP Solutions With Addition Of Quintum Technologies
Paracon, a leading distributor of voice, data and converging communications products, has partnered with Quintum Technologies, a leading innovator in voice over IP (VoIP) technology, to distribute the company's Tenor switches. Quintum's award-winning switches address the next generation VoIP access needs for the enterprise market by delivering the plug-and-play deployment, intelligent survivability and call management capabilities that are essential for VoIP success.
Because of its unique MultiPath architecture, Quintum's products can be seamlessly installed in existing PBX and next gen IP-PBX network environments, making it an easy VoIP solution to deploy. The Tenor switches deliver excellent voice quality, reliability and efficiency over IP networks, while monitoring calls for jitter, packet loss and latency. Call quality is never compromised, as the switches automatically and transparently change network connections mid-call whenever conditions demand.
"Quintum is a leading manufacturer of VoIP gateways, and, therefore, a strategic addition to Paracon," said Clay Sorensen, president of Paracon. "Their Tenor switches will enhance our solutions offering, allowing our resellers to deliver a complete, quality VoIP solution to their customers. The switches are easy to implement and deploy, while delivering enhanced quality and improved bandwidth. We also consider Quintum to be an excellent complement to Intel's Host Media Processing (HMP) software, as it serves as a gateway to the network."
"Paracon brings tremendous value to Quintum in distributing our Tenor product line," said Charles Rutledge, vice president of marketing for Quintum Technologies. "Paracon will deliver additional value to their resellers by integrating Quintum equipment into complete convergence solutions, including solutions based on Intel's HMP platform."
Paracon provides products and services to a network of solution providers, including independent software vendors, system integrators and interconnect companies. Paracon also provides its solution provider partners with same-day shipping, a large product inventory, and free technical support, in addition to its value-added services, such as educational activities, including its Solution City Road Shows; partner marketing; e-commerce solutions and professional services.
