“IP Telephony has been used for the past several years for bridging the islands of the Caribbean and the nations of Central and Latin America together at the service provider transport level, “said Rich Tehrani (News - Alert), TMC President and conference chair. “Now it is time to reveal how it is being used in the rapidly expanding mass market to bring small and medium business customers together.“ 

 

“From the implementation of cost-effective IP based key systems for single locations with scattered phones in remote locations to small to medium size multi-site locations in neighboring countries,” Tehrani continued. “New developments have recently made the cost of IP- key system implementation go way down and the features available to the end-user customer go way up.”
