NewCross is using the award-winning Ingate SIParator® , a unique devicethat works in conjunction with an existing network firewall to seamlesslyenable the traversal of SIP communications. TonePlus is a comprehensivehosted communications platform that allows companies to rapidly go tomarket with business and residential VoIP services over a variety of accessnetworks including WiFi and broadband. Using Ingate's SIParator, NewCrossoffers a cost-effective means for customers to deploy reliable, hosted VoIPapplications quickly and efficiently.
The SIParator solves the problem of SIP traffic traversing firewalls andNAT devices. SIP-based communications do not reach users behind firewallsand NAT devices automatically, because firewalls are designed to preventinbound communications and typically do not support the SIP protocol.Further, the NAT creates private IP addresses which are not publiclyroutable, meaning that inbound SIP communications cannot reach the intendedrecipient on the Local Area Network (LAN).
