Hanoi Telecom Interconnects to T-Systems' VoIP Network

Hanoi Telecom, a newly licensed carrier in Vietnam, has interconnected with T-Systems' global VoIP network using equipment from VocalTec Communications. The turnkey interconnection service provided T-Systmens' "Jules" platform enables Hanoi Telecom to route its international voice traffic over T-Systems' global VoIP network.



In the initial phase of this deployment, T-Systems set up PoPs for Hanoi Telecom in nine key cities in Vietnam, with VocalTec's carrier-grade packet tandem equipment installed at each PoP in the new network for international long distance traffic. In addition, the turnkey installation includes training and support on a 'managed and transfer' basis. There are plans to extend the network into ten additional provinces in subsequent phases.
