As a Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC), TelCentris Will Gain Significant
Competitive Advantages in Terms of Cost, Quality and Reliability
SAN DIEGO--(Business Wire)--
TelCentris Inc., a new type of telephony company and the creator of VoxOx, today
announced that it is launching a nationwide CLEC (competitive local exchange
carrier) and already has regulatory approval in five states. 

A CLEC is a phone company that has regulatory approval from the state PUC
(Public Utilities Commission) where it operates that enables it to compete
against incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs), such as AT&T. As a
facilities-based CLEC, TelCentris is rolling out a nationwide infrastructure
that enables it to provide services such as telephone numbers, local and long
distance calling, and data access over its own network. This network, based
largely on TelCentris` own Unified Communications Service Delivery Platform
(SDP) infrastructure, bypasses some of the costs and complexities of leasing
similar services from other CLECs or ILECs. The result is TelCentris` ability to
deliver more cost effective, innovative and higher quality services that meet
the needs of today`s businesses and consumers. 

"We`ve been working on our CLEC rollout for two years now and we are excited by
our progress," said Bryan Hertz, CEO of TelCentris. "This will enable us to pass
on significant savings to our many customers, as well as provide unparalleled
levels of quality, service and reliability." 

TelCentris now has regulatory approval in California, Texas, Florida, New York
and, most recently, Illinois, with other states on the way. The company has
formed a subsidiary, TelCentris Communications, LLC, to roll out its CLEC
operations. 

"TelCentris is making a strategically strong move and positioning itself for
strong future growth," said Fred Goldstein, an author and principal of Ionary
Consulting, a prestigious telecom consulting firm. "It is building a flexible
platform that puts it ahead of most other VoIP providers and many older CLECs."
