Wholesale VoIP providers act as traffic exchanges between next generation telecommunication carriers. They leverage their relationships with multiple carriers and offer mediation for call origination and termination. The wholesale VoIP provider signs both origination and termination contracts with next generation carriers and profits from the difference in negotiated rates. Partners send traffic to the wholesale VoIP provider which he/she re-routes to other partners for termination based on negotiated terms. |

How Does Wholesale VoIP Work?
• Partner A sends VoIP traffic to the wholesale VoIP provider for termination
• The SoftSwitch identifies the traffic and sends authorization request to the billing server
• The billing server ( RADIUS) verifies the account balance of Partner A and authorizes call termination
• The SoftSwitch re-routes the traffic to Partner B, hiding traffic source information. If necessary, the softswitch conducts codec conversion.
Upon completing the call, the billing server contains CDR record of the call which is available for billing, reporting and monitoring purposes. |
