Voice Peering
Enable new business models
Voice Peering allows for direct voice traffic exchange between two or more parties that have access to end users.
Parties involved merge their end user networks to create larger “on-net” communities. By expanding the pool of
on-net users, Voice Peering reduces overhead on termination and settlement, improves voice quality by avoiding
unnecessary transcoding, and enables innovative new business models that deliver a competitive edge.
