Ribbon & Comporium - A FiveYear Transformation to an AllIP Voice Network

From 2015 - 2020, Ribbon Communications and Comporium have partnered on a comprehensive modernization of Comporium’s voice infrastructure, replacing legacy switching systems with a fully IP‑based architecture built on Ribbon’s C20 Call Controller and Session Border Controllers (SBCs). This long‑term collaboration has enabled Comporium to enhance service reliability, streamline operations, and introduce a new generation of customer‑focused voice and unified communications offerings.

Comporium, a leading regional provider of broadband, voice, video, and smart‑home services, recognized the need to evolve its traditional TDM voice network to meet rising customer expectations and support its expanding fiber footprint. Ribbon’s carrier‑grade platforms provided a strategic path forward—allowing Comporium to migrate at scale while maintaining service continuity for residential and business customers.

The transformation has delivered significant operational and customer‑facing benefits, including improved resiliency, simplified network management, and the ability to rapidly deploy new IP‑based services. These include enhanced calling features, HD voice, integrated voicemail‑to‑email, advanced SIP‑based business services, and improved interoperability with cloud‑based collaboration platforms.

Together, Ribbon and Comporium have built a future‑ready voice platform that positions Comporium to continue innovating across its service portfolio, support next‑generation applications, and deliver a superior communications experience to the communities it serves.
