| Business Summary | | AudioCodes
Ltd.,
incorporated
in
1993,
designs,
develops
and
markets
enabling
technologies
and
products
for
the
transmission
of
voice,
data
and
fax
over
packet
networks.
Packet
networks
are
data
communications
networks
that
transport
information
compressed
into
"packets"
over
circuits
shared
simultaneously
by
several
users.
Newly
developed
equipment
based
on
advanced
voice
communications
standards
enable
packet
networks
to
carry
voice
and
data
more
efficiently
and
at
lower
cost
than
the
traditional
telephone
networks,
which
were
designed
principally
to
transmit
high
quality
voice
calls.
The
Company's
voice
compression
technology
permits
the
high
quality
transmission
of
voice
over
packet
networks
using
substantially
less
network
capacity
than
used
in
traditional
telephone
networks.
Its
products
enable
customers
to
build
highly
efficient,
high
capacity
gateways
and
access
equipment
that
are
used
to
connect
traditional
telephone
networks
with
packet
networks. | More
