Together, BT and HyperCube can more efficiently manage the transition from traditional voice services to VoIP-based calling.  With a combined offering, BT and HyperCube can ensure that calls are delivered end-to-end over IP based platforms, allowing service providers to avoid the cost burden of technology conversion.  For BT’s customers, this partnership will lower costs while enhancing voice quality and allow BT’s wholesale customers who are using the GLOBAL IP EXCHANGE to access IP voice services to reach in and out of the US.

“BT’s GLOBAL IP EXCHANGE platform is delivering on the IP end-to-end promise – a new capability to seamlessly import suppliers’ individual IP numbers to route calls to the end operator with confidence of no conversion to PSTN,” said Beatriz  Butsana-Sita, Managing Director BT Global Telecom Markets.  “This is achieved via ENUM-to-ENUM direct exchange between BT and HyperCube and demonstrates BT’s commitment to enhance its GLOBAL IP EXCHANGE services along its ambitious technology and capability roadmap.”

“BT has found a way to leverage IP technology and HyperCube’s innovative and highly efficient Tandem Service model to gain competitive advantage,” said Chris Malinowski Senior Vice President of Sales for HyperCube. “With this new capability, service providers using BT’s GLOBAL IP EXCHANGE both in the UK and globally can now feel confident that their VoIP minutes are routed directly to the terminating network as an IP connection.  In addition to ensuring high call quality, the call records retain information required to provide caller identification, as well as IP based information.  This is particularly exciting because it will enable future services beyond voice to be offered to retail customers.”

BT and HyperCube will use a dedicated SIP connection set up to route calls received from BT’s GLOBAL IP EXCHANGE customers to US numbers.  HyperCube will publish the numbers for dedicated IP end points to BT, and BT’s Global IP Exchange platform will automatically send traffic to these numbers via HyperCube interconnections.  This arrangement avoids the requirement of manual routing changes and enables traffic management at a level of granularity not achievable through traditional number range routing approaches.

BT and HyperCube’s partnership represents a further step towards BT’s Global IP Exchange’s provision of interoperability between the next generation VoIP standard and traditional telephony.  This helps to make the change of infrastructure seamless and convenient for service providers, while offering users the benefit of advanced new technology.
