Net2Phone
Company Overview
Net2Phone is a provider of low-cost, high-quality, retail Voice over IP services, either directly or through partners. Recognized as the first company to bridge the Internet with the public switched telephone network, Net2Phone currently routes millions of minutes daily over data networks, saving consumers and businesses up to 90% off traditional long distance rates.
The company is comprised of two wholly owned subsidiaries: (1) Net2Phone Global Services (NGS), and (2) Net2Phone Cable Telephony (NCT). NGS is a leading global provider of VoIP services to retail consumers and small- to medium-sized businesses around the world. NCT’s mission is to empower cable operators in North America and Western Europe with the toolset to offer residential replacement phone service to their subscribers utilizing their existing cable networks.
Through relationships with ISPs, VARs, competitive carriers and other resellers, NGS markets fully integrated VoIP solutions in emerging markets to businesses and consumers, capitalizing on the growth, flexibility and cost advantages of IP-based calling.
NCT offers cable operators the ability to deliver a viable cable telephony service to their video and high-speed data customers. For many operators, offering voice enables the "triple play" combination of video, high-speed data, and telephony, which not only delivers profitable top-line revenue but also aids in the reduction of subscriber churn. NCT manages the cable operators’ networks for them, enabling them to assure quality of service from call inception to completion.
Traded on the NASDAQ under the symbol NTOP, Net2Phone’s strategic partners include Liberty Media and IDT Corporation.
