Net could revolutionize phone service
New phone technology could be 'unstoppable'
02/10/98 - Updated 12:13 AM ET

"Over the next few years, you will see very rapid growth in IP
telephony," says Joe Nacchio, CEO of Qwest, which is constructing a
16,000-mile fiber network that uses both traditional phone switching
technology and the Internet. "I think it will be unstoppable." He already
offers consumers IP telephony in nine Western cities.

A company can easily slash its phone budget 35% by moving its voice
traffic to the same network that handles its data transmissions, says Eric
Benhamou, CEO of Internet equipment maker 3Com. A Forrester survey
of 52 Fortune 1000 companies finds that more than 40% of telecom
managers plan to move some voice or fax traffic to the Internet by 1999.
