SINGAPORE, June 20, 2006/Satnews Daily/ — Loral Skynet, a subsidiary of Loral Space & Communications (NASDAQ:LORL), and Go2Call, a pioneer in the Voice-over-IP (VoIP) services industry, have formed a strategic relationship to provide VoIP services in Asia to telecommunications and ISP/Broadband carriers, businesses and government organizations.
The agreement allows Skynet to combine its global Telstar satellite fleet and networked SkyReachIP-based service platform with Go2Call's unique VoIP phone technology. Loral said this combination will offer customers faster implementation of carrier-grade platforms without investment in full VoIP infrastructures.
“Voice-over-IP is reshaping the telecommunications landscape as we speak,” said Patrick Brant, president of Loral Skynet. “Our relationship with Go2Call will offer our customers in Asia an unbeatable combination of operational cost-savings and increased speed of implementation.”
Seven year old Go2Call's award-winning technology has enabled more than 200 service providers to launch VoIP services in more than 100 countries around the globe, according to David Kleiman, Go2Call director of sales for Asia-Pacific and Europe. “By joining forces with Loral Skynet, we will accelerate and expand our customers' reach throughout the region via the dedicated Telstar satellite fleet.”
The two companies said the Skynet/Go2Call relationship provides a comprehensive, turnkey and custom-tailored solution with a full suite of applications which expand existing services or provide a key feature(s) on a new VoIP service implementation. The Skynet/Go2Call solution is fully-hosted at the back end, which reduces delay risks and eliminates the upfront capital and operational expenditures required to build infrastructure.
