Telarix to provide unified routing for PLDT

PLDT Group has chosen Telarix to automate and bring together PLDT and its mobile subsidiaries, Sun Cellular and Smart Communications, into a unified call routing platform to attain advanced levels of operational efficiencies and service quality.

PLDT, a CSP and digital services company in the Philippines, will be utilising Telarix’s iXTools to create a single unified platform for the routing and trading of voice traffic of its various companies. They will also implement Telarix’s iXLink, a business-to-business exchange platform with a user community of over 4,000 CSPs, to automate PLDT’s fixed and mobile price lists and invoices, and to pre-test routes and ensure quality.

“By bringing its entities together under a shared unified platform, the PLDT group will have a better understanding of all its network components, enabling the entities to work more effectively together in leveraging strategic partnerships and opportunities,” said John Tolton,the vice president for sales for Telarix in the Asia Pacific region . “It will also allow PLDT to choose the most cost effective service for sending traffic, be it voice, SMS, wholesale, retail, fixed or mobile.”

Alex Caeg, the senior vice president at PLDT International & Carrier Business, added: “Telarix’s unified platform and automation tools will allow us to implement our strategies at a much faster pace. The use of a single consolidated platform across the networks of the different telecoms companies will provide us with unparalleled visibility into our networks and enable us to capitalise on efficiencies and opportunities. We look forward to working with Telarix in optimising our business.”
