There are three separate offerings: - GVOIP MPLS Off-net service, which enables enterprise customers to make off-net calls from any phone connected to their MPLS VPN to a PSTN phone anywhere in the world via Telstra's nearest global VoIP off-net gateway. - GVOIP Internet Off-net service, which enables enterprise customers to make off-net calls from any phone connected to their local area network to a PSTN phone anywhere in the world via Telstra Global's Internet Direct (GID) service, a dedicated corporate customer Internet access service. - GVOIP ICCS (International Call Centre Solution) services, which collects calls made to international toll-free numbers worldwide and delivers these as VoIP traffic into the customer's MPLS VPN. Telstra claims that the initiative is well-timed because enterprises are beefing up their investment on IP telephony. "According to Access Markets International (AMI) Partners Inc, spending on IP telephony by small businesses (SMB) (1-999 employees) across the Asia-Pacific region will exceed $US500 million this year, up more than 40 percent over last year. Overall, SMB spending on IP telephony (including IP centrex, IP PBX and IP phones/adaptors) is set to experience compound annual growth rates of more than 45 percent in the next five years," Telstra says. The service comes with three selectable classes of service - premium, enhanced and standard - that can be applied separately to each originating extension on the network. Telstra suggests that "in order to manage costs and quality, customers may choose a different CoS for different phone extensions on their network depending on the unique needs of each user." More details are available on the Telstra Asia web site where a little quality control would not have gone amiss to eliminate statements like these. "Telstra GVOIP Calling Solution advanced itself from other competitors from..." and "Telstra GVOIP platform is integrated with Telstra global MPLS platform thought through multiple sites."{moscomment} |
