Vonage : MagicJack and YMax Communications Corp
MagicJack runs along a real communications network belonging to YMax Communications Corp. YMax Communications owns 30 gateway switches and operates in all 50 states. YMax Communications has a nationwide backbone that lets it control call quality. It also can provide local numbers, E911 and 411 connectivity, and other traditional telephony functions. Owning the network rather than buying capacity from others is also one reason that YMax Communications can offer such low prices on MagicJack service. The other is that, as a true phone company itself, it earns revenue from other carriers by completing calls from their customers to its customers.
