You can connect without SS7 through Inteliquent, Peerless, and Wide Voice but they aren't in the smaller LATAs so if you're covering a more rural area it won't help you. MARY LOU CAREY BackUP Telecom Consulting Office: 615-791-9969 Cell: 615-796-1111 On 2022-01-22 03:34 PM, Shawn L wrote:
I don't see that happening anytime soon for the average teclo. We have SIP trunks to a lot of places, but I don't see the ISUP trunks going away any time soon. In fact, I just received an order to turn up an ISUP trunk last week. Wish we could get rid of them, but I don't see it happening.

Reduce your reliance on it more and more. Switch to IP tandems (Inteliquent/Peerless/etc) and ip interconnect. The people who make and support SS7 equipment are in a dying market, the brain drain on it is immense as people retire, and the longer you rely on it, the worse it's gonna get.
TNS is a big dog in the space. But that's not saying much anymore.

We currently get our SS7 via TNS. I (maybe incorrectly) understand them to be a big dog in that space.
I've had two major problems with them in six months.
What are my alternatives? Are they less pleasant?
