The Consolidation Opportunity
Companies with multiple offices typically maintain separate long distance service for each location. This can be costly, since smaller offices can't achieve the volume-based efficiency of a larger office with T1 access or greater to a telecom service provider's network.

A more cost-efficient alternative is to have smaller remote offices place all of their long distance calls through the main office's trunk lines. This allows the company to have all of its calls billed at the lowest possible rate. Even a reduction of a few cents can result in thousands of dollars of savings per month for remote offices with heavy long distance utilization.

Tenor Solution: Quality-Assured, Easy-to-Implement VoIP
Quintum Technologies' patented Tenor switching solution uniquely enables companies to consolidate their long distance traffic onto headquarters trunks via VoIP without compromising voice quality, disrupting existing infrastructure, or making the administration of communications infrastructure unacceptably complex. Long distance calls can easily be routed from remote offices over the corporate data network through the corporate PBX – without incurring PSTN charges. Calls between offices can also be routed over IP connections, resulting in additional savings.

Using Quintum's Tenor switches, outbound calls from smaller offices can be routed over existing WAN or VPN data connections to headquarters first – where they can then be sent to the PSTN over a T1. This yields substantial savings on telecom costs. It also allows calls between locations to be transported free of charge.
