Neutral Tandem to Talk HD Voice at VIPeering Conference, Collocated with ITEXPO West 2011

John Butz, Senior Director of New Product Development and industry expert on HD Voice for Neutral Tandem, is set to offer his extensive knowledge at the VIPeering Conference by participating in the session titled, “New Market Peering Opportunities: HD Voice and Video.”  The conference, which takes place on September 13 to 14 at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, Texas, is collocated with ITEXPO West 2011. ITEXPO, produced by TMC, is the world’s largest and best-attended IP Communications trade show, drawing an average attendance of 7,000 buyers and sellers of IP Communications products and services.

“We are very pleased that John Butz will be participating in this year’s show.   Neutral Tandem is respected as an industry leader, and I am confident that our attendees will appreciate and value the opportunity to hear his perspective on HD Voice,” comments Rich Tehrani, CEO and Conference Chairman for TMC.  “Participation from Neutral Tandem helps to further validate the show’s prominence in the industry.”

Mr. Butz’ participation at the conference comes at an opportune time for Neutral Tandem, a leading provider of global interconnection services, as the company launched its HD Voice Interconnect service recently in August. The service is designed to provide the carrier market a broad High Definition footprint to terminate quality voice traffic to both mobile and wireline carriers.  HD Voice Interconnect offers improved quality and low latency voice termination across its entire private SIP-based network, and is a seamless addition to Neutral Tandem’s existing voice termination platform, which presently manages over 11 billion minutes a month.

“We are excited to provide a comprehensive HD Voice solution to support carriers deploying wideband voice technology,” comments Surendra Saboo, COO of Neutral Tandem.  “We have designed our solution to be straightforward, without requiring complex routing tables or special number provisioning.  We look forward to speaking with other carriers and service providers at VIPeering who are planning wideband voice deployments regarding testing and interconnecting to our HD voice service, to maximize the value for their customers.”
