Hosted call server
We offer two main IPT options:
-
Access to a centrally hosted network call server maintained by BT, eliminating the need to buy your own IP PBX
-
If you have already invested in a traditional PBX, you can connect to our IPT platform for full WAN convergence
On-net calling (VoIP terminal to VoIP terminal)
On-net calls to other BT VoIP users are free, dramatically reducing your voice call bill. Forced on-net is part of the Multimedia VoIP service.
Off-net calling (VoIP terminal to PSTN phone)
PSTN access is provided within BT’s core network, with no need for additional gateways or PSTN lines. Calls to the global PSTN are priced at competitive rates.

Fire walling and NAT of customer IP address space
