- Positron Telecommunication Systems Inc. announced today that VoIPtel of Norway is an official member of the Positron Partner program and will soon be reselling Positron solutions to the marketplace. This represents the first steps for VoIPtel to resell the powerful and flexible Asterisk based solutions from Positron who offer the first integrated “Blade” solution.

“VoIPtel is an established vendor in the open source marketplace who focuses on efficiency, value and green products,” said Richard McGravie, President of Positron Telecom. “They bring along a lot of experience and knowledge of the VoIP market and will allow us to not only serve Norway but the entire Scandinavian and European market place.”

“At VoIPtel we believe in sourcing and selling only quality products to our customers,” said Jan Bjorkhaug, CEO of VoIPtel. “We were impressed by the hardware build and software quality of the Positron products. Not only have they created interesting products that address the market but they are also correctly priced for the small business, a fact that many vendors miss. The Positron solutions are feature rich and come in many different form factors to address our customers’ needs.”

Positron Telecom has created a partnering program to meet the many needs of the market place. Through innovation, support and sharing of ideas, this program can be profitable and beneficial to all parties. The program is designed to establish distribution and reseller partnerships with independent software vendors (ISVs), systems integrators, consultants and other technology companies. These companies will benefit from integration with, or distribution of, Positron products globally or within a specific territory

Many of today’s telephony solutions were architected over five years ago and struggle to blend within the IP world. Positron Telecom breaks down that barrier. Traditional telephony PBX boards only provide the telephony interface, which have complicated drivers that can have operating system issues and require a complex installation process that is prone to failure. The Positron Telecom solution integrates the PBX, incorporates telephony and IP ports and installs as an Ethernet adapter, which makes its operating system independent, thus requiring no additional drivers.

About VoIPtel

The main focus of VoIPtel is Asterisk based products and a series of environmentally friendly PBX’s. Development of an improved firmware for the IP04 open source project by David Rowe was started in November 2007 and became known as the VoIPtel GUI.

VoIPtel is now strongly focused on developing a series of communications appliances called VoIP X, which will be powered by Positron Telecommunications. Based on the 2U and 4U form factor and a capacity of up to 18 Blades, every eventuality is covered.
