Sonus far ahead in VoIP deployments in wireless

Out of the 214 billion National Long Distance VoIP minutes during 2Q07 that we reported a few days back, 58.9 billion were packetized wireless trunking minutes carried by Voice-over-IP/Packet networks implemented by cellular operators worldwide. Leading carriers include AT&T, China Mobile, T-Mobile, Telefonica, and China Unicom.

But there are some other forward looking carriers in this list too. And they include Saudi Telecom, True Move (Thailand), and VimpleCom (Russia).

Legacy vendors offering wireless trunking gear are being seriously challenged by Sonus, Huawei, Genband, and Veraz. Sonus has in particular taken the lead in packetized wireless trunking. Its platform handled nearly 56% of all VoIP traffic traversing wireless VoIP networks during 2Q07.
