Network Resilience
Businesses want a feature rich and easy-to-use system and a fair price that will scale as they grow. Just as important as each of these, is having a reliable system that won’t let you down. There are a multitude of VoIP systems to choose from with varying levels of security and reliability.
Our VoIP platform runs from multiple, geographically redundant, UK data centres. Our primary data centre is London Volta, offering industry-leading resilience for connectivity, power and cooling, and is a co-location centre of choice in the heart of the City.
We run load balanced controllers and hosts across advanced Linux Based Dell server clusters, providing additional backup, and connect to the PSTN using direct SS7. IP traffic flows directly over uncontended links, and the platform peers extensively over LINX and LonAP as well as privately, ensuring traffic is handed to other ISPs locally wherever possible.
