Dialogic® Multimedia Platform for AdvancedTCA (MMP for ATCA) is a powerful and cost-effective product that can be used to deliver applications such as voice and video mail, color ringback tones, unified messaging, and video conferencing over IP and PSTN interfaces in wireline and wireless environments using standard protocols for session and media control.

MMP for ATCA is able to meet the needs of Telecom Equipment Manufacturers (TEMs) and other vendors who are building next-generation multimedia processing solutions, especially in the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) framework, while also enabling migration from solutions deployed in existing TDM networks. MMP for ATCA provides a comprehensive set of building blocks for developers to create multimedia server and gateway solutions. Its flexibility allows for a choice between running customer-provided software from a local hard drive or standard remote interfaces for media control, configuration, and management.

MMP for ATCA includes hardware and runtime software. In order to enable customers to control their spending, various multimedia software runtime licenses are available. 

Note: To ease your transition to AdvancedTCA and to help you accelerate your development time, Dialogic has created the Dialogic® Multimedia Platform Development Kit. The Kit provides a versatile combination of hardware and software that helps you take advantage of the benefits of MMP for ATCA by reducing the challenges of moving to AdvancedTCA.
