With the Sonus Number Translation Server, carriers and service providers can address the growing need for number portability services while reducing costs. The number translation functionality is available as a software-based feature upgrade to the Sonus PSX Centralized Policy and Routing Server and delivers a highly scalable, highly flexible number portability solution. Sonus' number translation solution supports interoperability with a variety of databases—SIP, ENUM, INAP, TCAP—and allows carriers to get number portability data directly from the source and host it locally. Instead of paying a fee to a third-party service for every dip, carriers can reduce costs and eliminate 100-200ms of latency per call by dipping directly into their own number portability server.
