Subsidiary TNZI Announces Multi-Million Dollar Global Network Upgrade Program
Sydney, Nov 24, 2015 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Tier 1 voice carrier TNZI, subsidiary of MNF Group Limited (
ASX:MNF), announced a suite of upgrades set to double the global network operator's capacity. The expansion program has just completed the first stage with the upgrade of TNZI's London Point of Presence (PoP). Next up is the introduction of a range of value-added software-as-a-service (SaaS) functionality, creation of new PoP facility in Hong Kong to better serve the Asian market; and upgrades to existing TNZI Los Angeles, Sydney and Auckland PoPs for a total of approximately US$4 million capital expenditure investment in the global voice network.
"TNZI's new and upgraded PoPs will support a range of SaaS offerings that will enable Tier 2 market players and emerging providers to create additional value for their end-users," Clint Davis, TNZI Manager of Global Platform & Networks said. "The upgrade program will enable us to offer our growing global client base new-generation enhanced services, whilst ensuring that we are well-placed for future expansion."
The aim is to become the 'go to' carrier for those providers who are looking to innovate in the voice space. The increased capacity will support a range of value-added SaaS solutions, including white-label hosted telephony, DID phone numbers, number porting and toll free number services that TNZI is introducing in order to meet the needs of the growing base of specialised providers within the global wholesale market.
Emerging and Over the Top (OTT) Tier 2 providers increasingly look for specialised voice carriage networks. For example many call centres now source their own wholesale carriage and require services that deliver high capacity, reliable contact solutions with cleverly optimised inbound and outbound routing.
The capacity expansion program is expected to be completed within the next six months and will double call capacity in all existing PoPs - with the potential to quadruple capacity going forward. The expansion will also significantly increase the rate at which TNZI can establish call connections through the network. The move will ensure the TNZI global voice network will be able to carry the volume of traffic that the ambitious growth plans require, while supporting the high quality of service TNZI is known for.
MNF Group acquired TNZI, the global wholesale voice business of Spark New Zealand Limited, in April 2015. Today's announcement demonstrates its commitment to continuously improve TNZI's technical platform and service offering to meet the changing needs of the global communications industry and drive growth.
