Inbound DID/DDI
Inbound DID Complements VoIP
In the Telco world, DID is an acronym for Direct Inward Dial. In Europe, they use
DDI, which is an acronym for Direct Dialling Inward. DID and DDI mean the same thing:
being able to route an incoming call based upon identifying digits from the
telephone company.
This function is typically a special type of trunk line you need to order from the
telephone company. It can be an analog trunk or a digital T1/PRI line.
When DID Inbound capability is matched with Voice over IP (VoIP), many benefits
accrue to the subscriber. For instance, you may be based in Houston, TX but
wish to establish a 'local' voice/fax presence in Charlotte, NC. You simply obtain a DID number
from us. We then route that number via VoIP to your comapany's main PBX. This
reduces cost of remote field offices and staff.
This feature is very useful for international users who wish to establish a North American
presence. In addition to a local DID number, shortly, we will be able to offer
1-800 number service to your inbound DID number.
We have flexible plans for our Inbound DID capabilities. We offer two types of plans:
- $0.04/minute for a DID with a low per minute rate (minimum payment of $6/month)
- $39/month with unlimited inbound traffic for a dedicated VoIP port with a single DID number
