AT&T, Verizon Intercarrier VoLTE Launch Target Comes and Goes
Feb 29, 2016, 4:36 PM by Eric M. Zeman
AT&T and Verizon Wireless are still working to launch support for intercarrier VoLTE, despite missing the initial target. The companies expected to allow one another's customers to connect VoLTE calls between them before the end of 2015. Adam Koeppe, vice president of network planning and technology at Verizon, said the trials are going well and the two carriers plan to offer the service at some point later this year. AT&T and Verizon each offers its own customers VoLTE, which requires both the caller and recipient to have compatible handsets and LTE coverage. VoLTE paves the way for HD voice calling, as well as RCS-based services, such as rich messaging and video calls.
