PointOne outlined details of its StarPoint IP wholesale service which provides regional cable operators with local facilities-based VoIP capabilities. The service, available as StarPoint IP Home and StarPoint IP Office, will be delivered through cable operators. PointOne said it has invested over $100 million in developing a facilities-based network that covers 75% of the U.S. population with a privately managed IP network. PointOne’s converged voice and data IP network will in most cases carry the entire phone call without touching the public Internet.
PointOne’s service includes long distance; local service with e911, directory assistance and operator services; enhanced features including call waiting, call return, call forward, caller ID/ID block; voice mail; 3 – way calling, conferencing; and a service provider web portal. In addition, StarPoint IP Office will include abbreviated dialing; call hunt; reservation-less and multi-way conferencing; an Auto Attendant to receive incoming calls via an automated voice response system that provides directory listing and automatic call forwarding based on user extension; and free fax line. http://www.pointone.com/
