VoEX is now Intelepeer

Press release;

 IntelePeer Inc.
Rebranding reflects breadth of telecom offerings, peering and inter-network intelligence

FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--VoEX Inc., a major VoIP managed-services provider, announced today it has renamed itself IntelePeer Inc. to better reflect the companys comprehensiveness in next-generation communications services.

IntelePeers phone-number-to-IP address registry, global IP peering infrastructure, media transcoding and routing intelligence allow carriers, cable companies, wireless and other voice services providers, universities, call centers, enterprises and eCommunities such as AIM, Yahoo! and MSN to reduce their communications costs dramatically. Its infrastructure allows participating peers to send traffic around the world without making costly interim hops to public switched telephone networks, and to build and run intelligent voice-and-data communications applications from end to end.

We felt we needed to change our name because VoEX implies that were simply a voice exchange service using VoIP, said company CEO F. Terry Kremian. We needed a brand name that better reflects the broader range of our communications offerings and future direction of the company.

We chose IntelePeer because it stands for Intelligent Telecommunications and Peering, he added. Many of our would-be competitors offer voice peering and minutes exchange, or registry services, or gateway functions, as well as long-haul IP trunking services. We differentiate ourselves by offering all of these services combined with the infrastructure to develop next-generation intelligent communications applications. Kremian said he could foresee, for example, such applications as location-aware (or presence-aware) enhanced person-to-person interactions.

Leveraging industry standards, IntelePeers intelligent peering navigation technology assures that every call is delivered in the right format across the most cost-effective, highest quality route possible providing one-stop shopping for state-of-the-art IP services at a fraction of the cost. These services incorporate:

  • Intelligent Least Cost Routing maximizing quality and cost savings across all networks;
  • SIP-based Session Management reducing termination costs and eliminating payments to long distance and local carriers;
  • Any-to-Any Network Interoperability real-time transcoding, protocol translation and media conversion between disparate networks;
  • Phone Number Mapping linking phone numbers to IP-based addresses using ENUM and other protocols;
  • Device Discovery dynamically analyzing network traffic and call statistics to determine the best route and method to deliver calls while reducing the complexity of building device-specific applications.

These are the core services that define IntelePeer and will drive future growth, Kremian said.

He called IntelePeers SuperRegistry capability the addressing database and routing algorithms essential to the peering community -- a key differentiator, because the wide number of destinations it reaches makes the company a one-stop shop for realizing the many cost and Quality of Service benefits of VoIP and direct network-to-network interworking. It also sets the groundwork for support of IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and other IP-based applications.

The IntelePeer SuperRegistry combines its open-standards carrier ENUM directory technology with a global carrier-grade IP peering and TDM interconnect routing infrastructure. Together, this enables customers to originate, terminate and share calls or sessions for mobile, fixed and broadband communications.

In addition, the SuperRegistry platform will allow service providers to create new sources of revenue by deploying innovative SIP-based services such as video, presence and location-awareness.
