  • In September 2002, iBasis completed the deployment of new VoIP technology from Cisco Systems as well as new patent-pending routing and traffic management technology developed in-house. The new routing enables international VoIP calls to go directly from an originating gateway in any country to a terminating gateway in another country without having to pass through a larger central office or hub facility.

  • During Q3 2002, iBasis carried 670 million minutes of voice traffic, up 8% over the preceding quarter.
