"I have long recognized the importance of peering in the world of voice transmission as not only a cost saver now also as a way to ensure calls of the highest quality can be transmitted without the need to have them compressed and delayed by the public telephone network or PSTN. As a matter of fact, I declared 2006 as the year of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) peering and since at that time, the market hasn't looked back," said Rich Tehrani, CEO and group editor-in-chief of TMC.
