“The entry of Cisco has meant upheaval–and new technology
developments–for the enterprise voice market. Now, a much smaller
player hopes it can achieve at least as significant a shakeup in
this market.“This month, Pingtel will announce that it’s making all its
software available free to developers, as open source code. This
will include the company’s SIPx-change IP-PBX and its Instant

and technical assistance. It will also continue to sell its line of
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol-compliant) xpressa desk
phones…”
