New Feature Boosts Protocol Software's Signaling Capacity April 2001 Issue Published Date: April 01, 2001
The addition of the SpiderSLM feature to SpiderSS7 protocol software allows SS7 communication devices based on the Motorola MPC860 microprocessor to quadruple the number of T1/E1 interface channels available as signaling links. In turn, an increase in accessible SS7 links means a decrease in the hardware necessary for a given application by up to 75%. The feature replaces the functionality in the processor with a software solution and obsoletes the microcode and provides 16 SS7 links per MPC860. SpiderSLM is completely transparent to the MTP2 users. It is included in the standard SpiderSS7 pricing.
