National broadband company Internode has launched NodePhone Business Trunks to meet demand from small to medium-sized businesses for a multi-channel Voice over IP telephone service.
NodePhone Business Trunks offers greater flexibility and lower costs than ISDN OnRamp services that have traditionally met the needs of growing businesses with from a handful of employees to hundreds. The new service costs from $25 a month for a range of 100 phone numbers. NodePhone Business Trunks works with IP-enabled telephone PABX systems, ranging from open source solutions such as Asterisk to fully-featured enterprise systems such as the Cisco UC500 or Cisco Call Manager. Internode Product Manager Philip Dempster said NodePhone Business Trunks had evolved from customer demand for a multi-channel Voice over IP telephone service. “Customers were asking us for access to the service that Internode has used internally for several years,” he said. |

National broadband company Internode's $10 million network expansion plan will deliver a 500 per cent increase to its direct presence in Tasmania. This accelerated investment program will see Internode install its own DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) equipment at an additional 10 telephone exchanges in Tasmania – five times more than Internode’s current Tasmanian footprint of just two exchanges. Internode decided to dramatically increase its Tasmanian presence after the Federal Government abandoned its disruptive Fibre to the Node network. It was also encouraged by more competitive pricing of backhaul services to the mainland, due to the planned June 30 launch of the Basslink fibre optic cable across Bass Strait. Internode CEO Patrick Tapper said Internode installed its DSLAM equipment at exchanges based on customer demand and to achieve strategic objectives. “Our new capacity means that we will continue to offer better value and quality services to our customers,” he said. |
