Bermuda Telecoms Company Gears Up For Internet Telephony
By Tax-news.com

08 November 1999

Bermuda based telecommunications company Global Crossing is set to mount a challenge to communications giants such as Qwest Communications International and MCI World Com using internet technology.

Global Crossing has recently completed initial trials of its international network and plans to offer internet telephony services using the "voice over IP" internet protocol by early next year. The trials have focused on addressing the ever-present problem of bandwidth restrictions using state of the art fibre-optic networks powered by high-end routing devices and will continue into the first quarter of 2000.
