VoIP providers are among the first service providers to deploy ENUM to route end-to-end VoIP calls and bypass the PSTN. Whilst they enjoy the significant cost benefits of VoIP peering other fixed and mobile operators are eager to understand how ENUM will reduce wholesale interconnect costs, reduce infrastructure CAPEX and enhance and enable a plethora of new services. ENUM is an important technology in current networks and will have a key role to play in next generation networks.
