19th October 2004 - The future of mobile video has
began and it is expected by the end of 2004, mobile
operators will have more than 10 million mobile video
enabled handsets waiting for the next mobile video application.
Mobile operators have already begun releasing new video
applications and are looking for more, in order to capture
share in a market that many analysts expect will approach
$1.3 billion by 2007.
Fueling this revolution, NMS Communication today announced
the availability of Video Access, a complete, cost-effective
and easy-to-use toolkit for developing carrier-grade,
standards-based mobile video applications and solutions.
Armed with Video Access, another industry first from
NMS, application developers, network equipment providers,
and their carrier customers will be able to participate
in this new revenue opportunity by rapidly bringing
to market open, standards-based, scalable and cost-effective
mobile video solutions for both 2.5G and 3G network
environments.
Part of the Open Access framework, Video Access is the
first in a series of exciting mobile video products,
ranging from enabling technology and software toolkits
to complete servers and gateways that NMS will launch
in the coming months, including video gateways, video
messaging, and video conferencing.
Video Access is compatible with the 3G-324M video standard,
the multimedia protocol of choice for operators to deliver
conversational video services to their customers and
an important cornerstone of new 3G services. Video Access
offers a complete mobile video development environment,
field proven through interoperability testing done with
the International Multimedia Telecommunications Consortium
(IMTC) and through carrier service deployments by NTT
DoCoMo and others.
"With Video Access, NMS brings the same level of
performance and development simplicity that have been
their hallmarks for more than 20 years to an exciting
new arena, mobile video applications," said Brough
Turner, Senior Vice President of Technology, NMS Communications.
"We're eager to lead the charge, giving application
and solution developers a better alternative to the
proprietary, vertically integrated and expensive solutions
that have ruled video communications until today."
