Wholesale SIP
Build your voice service on wholesale interconnection.
Wholesale SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) provides IP telephony for providers and resellers. It fits services sold to your customers; for your own business, compare enterprise SIP Trunking.
It is not the usual choice for an end-user business; it requires a provider’s operational and commercial capabilities.
Let’s talk
How it works
Build your voice offering on carrier-grade interconnection.
Provider platform
Colt SIP interconnection
Numbers and PSTNA foundation for your own service
The provider integrates its UCaaS, CCaaS or voice platform with Colt for inbound/outbound traffic and numbering in supported markets. End customers consume the provider’s offering.
Define interconnection, provisioning, support and country obligations. Voice transport does not automatically deliver the entire commercial and regulatory service.

Numbers and PSTNScale with operational control
Size concurrency, call patterns and interconnection capacity. Correlate call records and signalling to detect errors, rejections and anomalies.
Agree fraud controls, destination permissions and consumption monitoring. A sudden increase in minutes may be legitimate demand or an incident.

Resilience requires coordinated interconnection points, routes and alternative capacity. Test endpoint failure and inbound/outbound calling behaviour.
Define operations-team escalation and customer communication. Colt availability and provider-platform availability are separate dependencies.
Illustrative case: from situation to decision
- Situation
- A provider wants to add telephony to the platform it sells to customers.
- Option
- Define interconnection, numbering and commercial and operational responsibilities.
- Check
- Test interoperability, fraud controls and incident escalation before onboarding customers.
For providers, OTTs and resellers with operational capability; not standard enterprise SIP.
Decisions for your project
- Markets
- Countries, numbering, porting and allocation of obligations.
- Interconnection and control
- SBC, channels, signalling, encryption and fraud controls by variant.
- Cross-team operations
- Provisioning, records, support, escalation and recovery tests.
From design to operation
Validate eligibility and interconnection with pilot traffic before expanding countries and volume.

What happens next?
- Understand the context
What’s changing, where your teams work and what cannot fail. Still defining the brief? We can help structure it.
- Design the options
Bring needs, Colt capabilities and technical criteria together. Compare alternatives and explain dependencies and limits.
- Validate before committing
Coverage, feasibility, responsibilities and terms. A commercial proposal is developed with the relevant specialists.
ColtPlatinum guides the project and coordinates commercial discussions and follow-up. Colt validates feasibility, enters into the service contract, and provisions, installs and delivers the services.
Availability, coverage, capabilities, SLAs and timelines are subject to technical validation and contract. No diagram is a service guarantee.
