XO Communications and BroadSoft today announced a new enterprise SIP trunking offering from XO. XO's new offering uses Broadsoft's BroadWorks VoIP platform and its enterprise trunking features to build out the enterprise SIP service.

"XO Enterprise SIP is an enhanced SIP trunking service offering for large enterprises, that enables them to transform their distributed PBX/PSTN interconnection to a more centralized and cost-effective VoIP solution," the companies said in a release.

Banks, financial institutions, professional services firms and retail stores with multiple locations often rely on one large IP PBX to provide PSTN connectivity to the entire business. With all the eggs in one basket, the switch to SIP trunking allows for IP network scalability and easy disaster recovery should communications go down. 

Back in May, Broadsoft and AcmePacket made a similar announcement [1] about their SIP Trunking offerings. That solution integrated Acme Packet's Net-Net session border controller and BroadSoft's BroadWorks VoIP application program for enterprise SIP Trunking.
