(here's my gift for you today) telephonyworld.com HCC puts California Voice over IP Provider On-Line FNet – Franklin Telecom's Voice over IP Provider Chooses HCC Telephony Platform. Westlake Village, CA, August 12, 1998 -- Heritage Communications Corporation, a Melbourne, Florida telecommunications system builder completed the installation of a World Talknet Telephony Platform including a Harris 20-20 Telephone switch at the Westlake Village, California headquarters of Franklin Telecom/FNet, a world leader in Voice over IP technology. Franklin Telecom/FNet chose World Talknet, Heritage Communications Corp's platform as the foundation of a hybrid network, capable of terminating calls around the world along with the full array of enhanced telecommunications services made possible in World Talknet. The installation of a turnkey World Talknet Telephony Platform at the Franklin Telecom/FNet headquarters in Southern California marks the first use of the state-of-the-art system in Voice over IP networking. Voice over IP networking is the latest technology approach to reducing the bandwidth needed to route voice telephone calls over long distances, which will increase availability of resources – thereby reducing the cost of long-distance telephone calls. World Talknet was designed to fill a void in telephone industry between cheap, inefficient PC-based systems and very expensive full-scale switches commonly used by AT&T, Sprint and the Bell Companies. The HCC system permits small to mid-sized companies to offer top notch services while reducing capital investment. With continued deregulation, consumers are benefiting from the effects of competition, which has resulted in new service enhancements, better Customer Service, and reduced prices. Much of this competition has come from small to medium-sized telephone companies who have been willing to do more for their customers while driving down prices. The Heritage Communications Corp. product line is now in use by small to medium-sized telephone companies in Florida, Georgia, Texas and California.
