Allstream Launches Wholesale VoIP in Canada

Allstream launched a VoIP Access solution to help other service providers to connect their self-managed VoIP networks to the PSTN. The wholesale service is aimed at residential and SOHO VoIP rollouts. Allstream said it is the first in Canada to offer full ancillary services, including 911, 711, 411, Local Number Portability (LNP) and Operator services to VoIP service providers. In addition, customers can also add or supplement their offerings by taking advantage of other Allstream services such as Long Distance, Calling Card and Internet. Allstream has the network coverage to provide these services in major markets across Canada.



One of the first early adopters of this service is PRIMUS Canada, which offers one of Canada's leading VoIP phone services, TalkBroadband, to business and residential customers coast-to-coast. http://www.allstream.com
