Our services include both TDM and managed IP telephony (VoIP) and and hosted IP telephony (VoIP) Services. STEL Communications is a UK pioneer in managed IP Telephony (VoIP) services for businesses. Unlike most VoIP providers that rely heavily on third party providers, we manage our own UK end-to-end TDM & IP telecommunications network. We also offer a seamless switch-over from traditional telecommunications services to a wide range of secure, integrated and cost-effective IP-based solutions. We are leaders in voice and data convergence, and unlike traditional telephony suppliers our heritage in data management and expertise in networking and voice services means we are able to offer clients an end-to-end solution to maximise the benefits of data and voice telephony.
Our managed telephony service is a hosted voice service designed specifically for businesses. Unlike the traditional approach of installing a physical PBX system at each office, all telephony switching equipment is hosted at our secure data centre facilities. The voice service is then delivered over our network direct to your offices, with IP phones connected to your office LAN. This network-based design is particularly suited for dynamic and growing organisations as it can be quickly changed to fit your requirements, and staff at home or remote offices get exactly the same functionality as their head office colleagues. For companies looking to move to IP Telephony (VoIP), particularly multi-sited organisations, hosted IP Telephony (VoIP) can offer significant cost-saving, as well as increased operational efficiency, resilience and business continuity.
A single connection to our network provides an inexpensive and easy to maintain method of obtaining global connectivity for both incoming and outgoing international traffic. Local operators are able to receive low cost, high quality termination and benefit from our traffic management service which collects and aggregates traffic destined for the operators’ network at the best price possible. Our traffic management and consultancy services are specifically tailored to provide solutions to our customers’ individual requirements. These services are designed to give independent network operators the expertise and traffic management skills usually only found with major carriers.
Our solutions for GSM backhaul over satellite enable cell sites to be installed in regions where no infrastructure currently exists, such as in developing countries. We provide solutions and bandwidth to enable GSM operators to extend their radio access network using satellite transmission, and to enable international and inter-MSC switching via the use of a VoIP soft switch and TDM systems.
