Telcoinabox signs wholesale agreement with NBNCo

Telcoinabox telecommunications provider has signed a wholesale agreement with NBNCo to help launch the NBNCo hosted voice services to its 100 service providers in the first quarter of 2012.

“The time is now right for us to take this product to market. Many of our service providers are in regional areas covered by the latest NBNCo roll-out plans and it’s critical that they are ready to connect their customers when the network goes live in their area,” said Paul Line, Telcoinabox CEO.

According to Line, the partnership between Telcoinabox and NBNCo had begun early on.

“We welcome Telcoinabox as a Service Provider on the NBN.  NBNCo will continue to work with Telcoinabox over the coming months to facilitate its on-boarding to the NBN,” said Ben Salmon, NBNCo Sales Director.

According to Line, the roll out of the high-speed broadband network would give SME markets an incentive to adopt hosted voice technology. This has been one of the drivers for Telcoinabox’s launch of their first cloud-based hosted voice product, MyPBX. Line believes the MyPBX is the next logical step into the ‘next generation’ products for Telcoinabox and would be easily integrated into an NBN environment.

“Traditional voice is where we first built our business so it makes sense for our first cloud-based product to be a voice application,” said Line.

“The SME market hasn’t really adopted this technology with the vigour of larger enterprise clients. Many current VoIP providers focus heavily on cost-savings but, while these can be significant,  we feel there is an opportunity to educate smaller business operators on the added flexibility , mobility, scalability and efficiency benefits that a fully hosted solution can offer.” 

Network testing is planned to commence in January 2012 with an expected product release for April next year.

According to Line, MyPBX will help provide further growth opportunities for existing Telcoinabox telecommunications franchises, while attracting new franchisees into the company.
