These services will include standard telephone POTS, ISDN, ADSL, leased-line, ATM, X.25, frame relay and wholesale services.

This will give us the ability to interchange information with our Siebel Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system, SAP and ESRI Geographical Information Systems (GIS). This bus-based architecture gives us a future-proofed solution for quickly providing data to all interested connected systems."Installation of Xng is already underway and will be ongoing.
