MTN Network Solutions gives VOIP workshop

Johannesburg, 01 Mar 2005

MTN Network Solutions will present a VOIP workshop at the `Africa Telecommunications` event at the Park Hyatt on Friday, 4 March, being staged by Marcus Evans.

As part of the MTN Group, MTN NS is one of the few service providers in SA with significant expertise in both voice and data solutions.

Mike Brierley, CEO of MTN Network Solutions, says: "VOIP has taken the South African corporate market by surprise, and as a leading VOIP supplier, we need to help business understand what VOIP is all about, and what the economic benefits and cost of VOIP are.

"VOIP was a natural product extension to our core VPN services as our MPLS network is fully QoS-enabled and this ensures VOIP traffic is prioritised across all parts of our network, resulting in high quality voice calls."

We have established an international voice transit partner in London and are already routing calls both on-net, branch to branch and internationally to any destination.

These new products enable clients to greatly reduce their call costs and this can even include national calls.

MTN NS is eagerly awaiting for ICASA to issue the regulations on local interconnect and numbering plans, so that we can further leverage our relationship with MTN SA, and offer our VPN clients a full VOIP service to any destination both locally and internationally.
