History
[edit | edit source]In 2003, Inteliquent created the first independent tandem network, a "network of networks" uniquely interconnecting disparate carrier networks to facilitate the exchange of traffic.
This network simplified the routing of local transit traffic among wireless, cable, CLEC, and broadband telephony companies, serving as a basis for subsequent interconnection services.[2]
