Covad Testing New Local Phone Technology
Covad :
"The VoIP signal is routed over the Internet to a separate facility with a 'soft switch,' which steers the call toward its ultimate destination.
By using VoIP, there's no need for Covad and its partners to lease any of the local Bell's equipment except the actual copper phone line which travels between the central office and a customer's premises."
