What is Voice Peering?
Voice peering is a process that is utilized today to route audio call signals from one point of service to another, using the Internet as the means of transmission. Sometimes referred to as VoIP peering, the routing of the signal bypasses the traditional PSTN, or Public Switching Telephone Network. The end result is a signal that is considered to have a high level of sound quality without the generation of a high cost to the originator of the call. The general fabric of a voice peering process can occur in one of two ways. First, the signal is routed through a private network. Any service providers who are connected to the private network can complete the connection with any other providers who are also connected with the network, essentially creating what could be referred to as an “on to on” connection via the network. This is known as a Layer 2 process in voice peering fabric or VPF. A second means of initiating voice peering involves the use of an open network. In this scenario, th
