摘要

Manulife financial joined the ranks of large enterprises hoping to lower their costs by moving to voice over IP (VoIP) through a seven year, $140-mil-lion deal with Bell. BCE Connexim, formerly a joint venture with Hydro-Quebec but now a wholly-owned Bell services subsidiary, will deploy Cisco IP phones and related network equipment to Manulife's operations both in Canada and the U.S., where it operates under the name John Hancock.
