Valued-added distributor FVC on Sunday announced a partnership with Sangoma, a provider of hardware and software components that enable or enhance IP communications systems.
This distribution deal adds more clout to FVC’s unified communications and service provider offerings, as well as giving Sangoma the chance to reach a larger customer base, a statement from FVC said.
“We are delighted to represent Sangoma in the region,” said K. S. Parag, Managing Director, FVC. “These solutions will help our partners offer their customers fully integrated Polycom and Microsoft Unified Communications solutions in a very efficient and cost-effective manner.”
Sangoma’s product line includes VoIP gateway appliances, Sessions Border Controllers, SS7 Gateways, Transcoding Hardware and Microsoft Lync Express Appliances.
Sangoma Lync Express provides a complete PBX replacement, and is the only all-in-one Lync server appliance with built-in VoIP gateway and Session Border Controller. It packs all of the Lync and telephony functions into a 1u server chassis that is easily installed and configured.
“Sangoma has a clear focus on the MENA region,” said Johan van Bruck, Sales Director, EMEA Sangoma. “It is one of the rare areas that continue to invest in IT and telecommunications due to the economic growth of SMEs and corporate enterprises.
“Through a master distributor like FVC, we are able to expand our regional business with a partner who covers a large area, knows the region extremely well, and can significantly help the company grow.”
