Level 3 Introduces VoIP MARKETPLACE

Level 3 Communications introduced a new (3)VoIP MARKETPLACE service targeted at call center operators, voice portals, and conferencing providers. The service allows customers to establish a local presence on the PSTN and receive locally dialed calls. Calls can be placed into the network via
Level 3-assigned or customer-ported local telephone numbers. Level 3's softswitch platform converts the calls to IP and routes them to Level 3's MPLS-enabled backbone for delivery to the customer's own IP voice application. Local VoIP-PSTN presence is provided in 73 markets across the U.S. The service also utilizes Level 3's extensive local networks.


Level 3 noted that its softswitch platform has successfully processed more than 300 billion minutes in calls to date.
