OTEL Telecoms this week becomes the first licensed national telecoms provider to offer enterprises the lowest cost leased line package to enable stable and clear VoIP connections.

Offering the service nationwide through Channel Partners, Otel has already deployed over 100 connections during its two-month-long BETA test phase with resounding success.

"We believe this fundamentally changes the competitive landscape in South Africa," said Otel's Last Mile Connectivity specialist Senzo Nkumane

"Otel Telecoms offer businesses a Cisco-based Enterprise Grade Leased Line for much less and it uses the power and flexibility of our broadband network to create an attractively priced all-in-one communications solution that none of our competitors who use ADSL can match in stability, affordability and voice clarity,"Nkumane said.

Last year, the rise in popularity of uncapped ADSL service increased the use of Internet usage, where video streaming, online music listenership and large file download has become the norm in broadband use.

This in turn has added additional pressure on already over-contended ADSL exchanges.
