Rural local exchange carriers increasingly turn to MetaSwitch for traditional and advanced communications services
MetaSwitch has announced that with its deployment with Ontario & Trumansburg Telephone
Companies (OTTC), it is now providing the core softswitch technology for 150 independent operating companies (IOCs)
in North America. MetaSwitch's platforms enable IOCs to deliver traditional telephony services to business and
residential subscribers, as well as provide the foundation for the advanced platform of IMS-enabled services as
the carriers migrate toward next-generation architectures.

One Communications is the largest privately-held competitive local exchange carrier
in the U.S. serving more than 160,000 businesses throughout the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Upper Midwest
regions with more than 2,200 employees and $800 million in annual revenue.
Formed through the merger of three prominent CLECs, One Communications was tasked with
integrating its formerly independent network architectures. After rigorous testing and evaluation, it
selected MetaSwitch as its common platform for integrated voice and data communications and has begun
migrating existing customers from its legacy switches, leveraging the MetaSwitch Professional Services
team to provide a range of migration related services. The MetaSwitch distributed softswitch platform
now supports a variety of standalone and converged voice and data solutions for both its business and
carrier customers. As a result of these efforts, One Communications is poised to experience substantial
switch center savings, a rapid ROI, and the ability to more efficiently serve a growing array of converged
voice and data services to its customers.

Communities turn to trusted, reliable softswitch provider to introduce enhanced voice services alongside high-speed broadband
Just as they once constructed their own infrastructures for electricity and water supply,
many municipalities are taking their future into their own hands by building leading-edge telecommunications
systems. From coast to coast, communities are realizing that their economic success depends on high-speed
broadband networks coupled with the most advanced communications services – and they are increasingly turning
to MetaSwitch to realize that vision.
