Why TollBridge for MSOs?

Deploy VoIP today and start enjoying the huge revenue advantages of bundling voice service with the rest of your cable offering. Other than basic cable service, voice is clearly the largest single revenue line item, delivering from $50 to $70 per month per subscription on average at 40% or better margins. Cable telephony has shown immediate take rates in the 10% range, with total marketshare of 30% or more 24 months out. A huge revenue source!

Offering voice service is also a benefit to other strategic services such as VoD or ITS - as telephony customers show remarkably low churn (under 2% per year) and the customer enjoys the convenience of a single bill for all telecommication services coming into the home.

The PacketCable IPDT approach to VoIP allows VoIP to be deployed easily and safely today, by installing compliant VoIP adapters at the subscriber, while the highly-reliable Class 5 switch delivers the features and service.

When next-generation VoIP services are ready to go, just overlay them on the same network model, without having to replace the subscriber gateway, DOCSIS 1.1 CMTS or any other network equipment.
