Phybridge and SaskTel Team Up to Eliminate Network Barriers for IP Telephony and Unified Communications Migration

Oakville, Ontario (PRWEB) April 01, 2015

Phybridge Inc., a provider of innovative voice over IP solutions infrastructure, announced today its strategic partnership with SaskTel in a joint effort to bring hosted voice solutions to the businesses of Saskatchewan. SaskTels' Integrated Business Communications (IBC) platform is a game changing cross-platform application that offers users a hosted IP unified communications solution with improved communication and collaboration tools. The objective of IBC is to offer an end-to-end solution to business that allows businesses to easily modernize their communications platform gaining the unified communications benefits offered.

Critical to this capability is incorporating the Phybridge PoLRE switch as part of the IBC offering. The award winning Phybridge PoLRE switches deliver Ethernet and Power over a single pair of wire with four times the reach of traditional Ethernet switches, allowing customers to transform their existing voice infrastructure into an IP network with power. The migration to SaskTel's Integrated Business Communications (IBC) offering is quick, easy and non-disruptive thanks to the PoLRE switch innovation.

"Before Phybridge, local area network requirements to support an IP Telephony migration were too great a barrier. Customers want quality of service, voice continuity, and a converged network that is highly secure and easy to manage. SaskTel wants to deliver a complete solution that is robust and reliable for customers without any dependencies on a third party partner to provide the network to support their IP migration while reducing complexity," said Ron Styles, SaskTel President and CEO. "The Phybridge switch innovation delivers on both: a quick and easy way to optimize the LAN for voice and data convergence, and an end-to-end offering partners can have confidence in."

"By offering extremely reliable and scalable solutions that are easy to install and use, SaskTel can help customers to migrate organizations of any size. The Phybridge solution makes the migration to Hosted IP Telephony quick and easy," said John Croce, CEO at Phybridge. "The Phybridge and SaskTel partnership will allow organizations to enjoy the benefits of the IBC offering on a robust platform sure to deliver a great user experience."
