LatiNode expands VoIP coverage to Guatemala, HondurasUS-based voice-over-internet protocol (VoIP) specialist LatiNode says it has launched its CrossFone residential service in Guatemala and Honduras, expanding its footprint in the Latin American region. LatiNode CEO Jorge Granados told BNamericas that his company now plans to expand the business model it launched successfully in Argentina three years ago to include new markets such as El Salvador and Nicaragua – although its two-year timeframe is subject to change. In Guatemala the company is planning to offer broadband services in addition to its core retail business: pre-paid calling and unlimited use VoIP subscription. In Honduras, where local telecoms laws require all DLD traffic to go through the country’s incumbent Hondutel, CrossFone is fully licensed as a ‘sub-operator’ of the telco, in compliance with Honduran law.
Meanwhile, in Argentina itself LatiNode now plans to extend its service portfolio to a triple-play offering through partnerships with local cablecos.
