Global Crossing adds Mexico to its VoIP Local Service

The company now offers its Global Crossing VoIP Local Service to a total of 21 countries. By adding 400 more cities in the US, including Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, and Tucson, the total number of places able to source its service is 1,400 nationwide.

Global Crossing VoIP Local Service is available in Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Peru, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK and the US. A complementary offer, Global Crossing VoIP Outbound, is available from 29 countries around the world and provides the consistency customers require from global services.

Mexico is seen as an important growth market for Global Crossing, where customers are enthusiastic for convenient, feature-rich local VoIP services.

Global Crossing VoIP Local Service is an inbound local service that provides nationwide Direct Inward Dialing/Direct Dial Inward functionality through a single IP interconnection. The service lets customers originate traffic on the public switched telephone network in different countries.

Traffic is then converted to VoIP on Global Crossing's network and delivered to the customer's IP network. VoIP Local Service can also eliminate traditional time division multiplexing, private line and foreign exchange service fees by providing a single IP connection to serve multiple markets.

Global Crossing's global, fully meshed MPLS-based network ensures that VoIP calls are delivered with minimal latency, packet loss and jitter, a consistent and predictable call quality not possible with voice services based on public Internet transport.

Global Crossing will continue to expand its reach into key markets across the world, and will use its secure, reliable global IP network to support multinational customers, and the carriers that serve them, in need of these essential business applications.
