Rep Power: 4 | Telewest has teamed up with Ericsson in a bid to enter the fast-growing internet telephony market. The cable TV provider, now the UK's largest cable operator and a thriving broadband provider, has signed a five-year deal with Ericsson to migrate its existing voice network to one based on VoIP. The initial phase of the deal focuses on residential customers, who will be offered a voice-over-broadband service using Ericsson's Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem technology. Telewest's phone network will migrate to VoIP using Ericsson's Telephony Softswitch. Ericsson claimed that the ultimate aim is to provide a cheaper alternative to traditional landline calls, and to save Telewest's running costs. "Telewest is already seeing the benefits from its investment in its network, " said Jacqueline Hey, UK managing director at Ericsson. "Our technology will provide gains [for Telewest] in network running costs and efficiency." |
