Telastic On-Demand Border Controllers Surpass Billion Minute Milestone

OAKLAND, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Pac-West Telecomm, Inc. ("Pac-West"), a leading provider of wholesale advanced telecommunications services, today announced that its Telastic™ on-demand border controller service, launched in September, has rated and routed in excess of a billion minutes through the end of 2010.

“The sea-change to VoIP has been driving unprecedented growth in the Session Border Controller market,” said Vic Bozzo, President and General Manager of Pac-West’s Telastic business unit. “The Telastic Border Controller is quickly emerging as an obvious choice for companies that want to securely deploy VoIP scalably without having to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a box up-front.”

Pac-West recently launched the Telastic on-demand service set, consisting of three integrated elements: Telastic Infrastructure, Telastic Application Capacity, and Telastic Turnkey VoIP Applications. Telastic Border Controller technology is at the heart of the Telastic Infrastructure offering, which provides scalable on-demand border control, including VoIP security with network address translation capability, firewall traversal, and interworking.
