LAKE ELSINORE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 29, 1999--NP
Energy Corporation is pleased to announce that its telecommunications
arm, MCC MetroPLUS Communications Corp. is aggressively developing its
Internet Telephony IP Gateway that will allow the Company to route
calls over the internet at a substantial savings.
Customers using the MetroPLUS network will be able to pay one
flat rate for unlimited long-distance calling between points on the
system. Initially, MetroPLUS will be starting in the Lower Mainland of
British Columbia.
The Internet is a worldwide network of computer networks.
Computers can send messages to each other via the Internet (E-mail is
the most familiar example). However, audio can also be digitized and
passed between computers just like any other data type. In fact, many
Web sites are now sound-enabled.
The MetroPLUS IP Telephony Gateway uses the Internet to send
audio between two telephones in real time, so the users can converse.
