Spirent Communications(TM) and Telephony Magazine Invite TELECOM
'04 Attendees to Register Their 'VOTE for VoIP'
The Popular 'VOTE for VoIP' Poll Continues at USTA's TELECOM '04 at Spirent's
Booth #231
LAS VEGAS, Oct. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- USTA -- Spirent Communications
(NYSE:SPM) (LONDON: SPT) and Telephony Magazine are once again teaming up to
find out what the telecom industry thinks about the buzz surrounding VoIP.
At TELECOM '04, Spirent and Telephony Magazine are expanding the popular "VOTE
for VoIP" poll launched at SUPERCOMM 2004 in June. Spirent gauged
international opinion with a similar vote at the Broadband World Forum in
Venice in September.
Voters who take the TELECOM '04 "VOTE for VoIP" poll will be asked to
participate in a simple survey designed to capture opinions on the reality of
VoIP deployment and its impact on the industry.
The poll includes questions such as:
* Do you think VoIP is ready for widespread deployment?
* Do you think VoIP will revolutionize communications or is it over-hyped?
* What do you believe is the number one obstacle to rolling out VoIP
today?
* What are the leading benefits customers will derive from VoIP
technology?
Attendees can vote at computerized polling kiosks located at Spirent's booth
(#231). The poll can also be accessed on Spirent's website at
http://www.spirentcom.com/. Final survey results will be printed in the post-
TELECOM '04 issue of Telephony Magazine.
"Spirent offers a range of IP service assurance technology tools that allow
service providers to dramatically accelerate the deployment of VoIP services,"
said Dave Gellerman, vice president of Marketing for Spirent's Service
Assurance - Broadband unit. "IP service deployment is a hot industry topic and
a key theme at TELECOM '04. We encourage attendees to weigh in on the hype
surrounding VoIP by participating in this industry poll -- we look forward to
comparing the results with those from SUPERCOMM 2004 and Broadband World
Forum."
"VoIP's strong market momentum continues. We are pleased to again join forces
with Spirent to find out how the telecom industry feels about the benefits of
VoIP, the obstacles to deployments, and its impact on the industry," said Mark
Hickey, publisher of Telephony and Telephonyonline.com.
"According to polltakers at SUPERCOMM 2004, the VoIP revolution is well
underway -- we look forward to hearing what attendees of TELECOM '04 have to
say about the promises and challenges of IP."
At TELECOM '04, Spirent will be showcasing its range of IP telephony test and
diagnostic service assurance solutions, including SmartSight, TRT Interactive,
Abacus 5000 IP Telephony Test Migration System, and Spirent All- In-One
Testing.
