BT Introduces VoIP Services

BT has launched flexible voice over IP (VoIP)-based services, targeted at global communication providers outside UK. It enables a new entrant to the market to become a communication provider, without the cost and complexity of investing in IT and network infrastructure, claims BT.

BT’s IP Voice Managed Service is one of a range of 21C operator services, featuring advanced multi-layered security, including session border controller (SBC) functionality and VoIP firewall capabilities. A single web-based interface allows the user to monitor call flow and control expenses.

Karsten Lereuth, president, BT Global Telecom Markets, describes the new offering as an “out-of-the-box” solution that simplifies the delivery of IP telephony services without huge investments or technology knowledge. “We have kept this offering as simple to use as possible " any person who can work with Microsoft Windows can use BT IP Voice Managed Service,” claims Lereuth.
