ABOUT TO CHANGE FOREVER.
Lumen is leaving voice.
WITH 46 LABS, Your customers
don’t have to leave everything else.
Now that Lumen is exiting voice and discontinuing Lumen Business Voice, enterprises need a clear path forward without the cost and disruption of rebuilding their communications environment.
For channel partners, that creates an immediate question:
How do you move customers without asking them to rebuild everything around the carrier?
46 Labs gives channel partners the infrastructure, routing and migration support to move enterprise customers off Lumen while preserving the systems, numbers and workflows they already depend on.
Keep their PBX.
Lose the dependency.
If your customer’s existing PBX and SBC environment still does the job, there’s no reason a carrier exit should force you to replace it. 46 Labs can help you move the SIP connectivity underneath their environment, port their numbers and establish the routing they need without turning a carrier migration into a company-wide communications overhaul.
And with number portability being one of the cleaner pieces of the Lumen change, the biggest variable shouldn’t be the technology. It should be how quickly and cleanly you can get your customer moved. 46 Labs helps make that part simple — fast when it needs to be and dependable when it matters most.
Your customers’ users shouldn’t be affected by who carries their Teams and Zoom calls. Ideally, they’ll never notice when the carrier changes.
For customers using Microsoft Teams Direct Routing, Zoom Phone BYOC or another cloud collaboration platform, the application layer can remain exactly where it is. 46 Labs replaces the connectivity beneath it with infrastructure built to integrate into the platforms they already use.
PeerEdge gives partners access to software-defined voice infrastructure, centralized management and global connectivity without forcing customers into another closed communications ecosystem.
Better yet, 46 Labs supports enterprise integrations with Microsoft Teams, Zoom and other UCaaS environments, giving you more flexibility in how you build the right solution around each customer.
Change the carrier.
Not the way they work.
A migration measured
in people, not ports.
Moving a SIP trunk can be quick. Moving hundreds or thousands of users is different.
Seat-based UCaaS environments come with users, handsets, locations, call flows, training and small operational details customers only notice when one of them stops working. That makes the migration plan just as important as where they land.
46 Labs helps partners approach the transition as infrastructure work, not a license swap.
Map the environment. Determine what stays. Identify what needs to move. Then build the migration around the customer instead of forcing the customer around the migration.
For Lumen accounts, that distinction matters. The underlying voice layer may be reaching the end of life, but everything sitting above it doesn’t automatically need to follow.
One toll-free number is simple.
A national customer inventory of numbers, routing rules, RespOrgs, contact centers and business owners is where “just port it” stops being the plan.
Lumen’s exit puts those assets in motion too. 46 Labs gives partners the carrier-side experience to inventory, port, route and manage toll-free and geographic voice services without asking you or your customer to manually shepherd every number through the process.
46 Labs already operates wholesale origination, termination and toll-free number infrastructure for carriers and enterprises. And because at scale, migration stops being a pricing exercise and becomes an operations exercise. That’s where the right infrastructure partner earns its place.
The easy stuff gets
complicated at scale.
This is where “just switch carriers” stops being true.
Twenty locations. Multiple PBXs. Contact-center integrations. E911 records. International DIDs. Local routing decisions nobody has touched in years… that environment shouldn’t be rushed because a contract date showed up at the end of a spreadsheet.
For complex accounts, 46 Labs can help channel partners build the migration around the actual topology of the customer’s business: sites, numbers, platforms, routing, contact-center dependencies and the sequence in which all pieces and parties need to move.
PeerEdge was specifically built to bring fragmented vendor communications infrastructure together under a unified orchestration layer. That gives you something more valuable than another carrier quote: a migration plan you can confidently put in front of your customer before the first number moves.
Public-sector and emergency-services environments come with requirements that make a standard migration anything but standard.
E911 records, regulatory obligations, public institutions, mission-critical routing and procurement requirements can dramatically change both the migration path and the timetable.
46 Labs works with carriers, Fortune 500 enterprises and public institutions, but environments involving NG911 or other specialized government infrastructure should begin with discovery rather than assumption.
We’ll work with you to determine what is actually affected by Lumen’s exit, what should remain untouched and where 46 Labs can support you in building the right transition plan for your customer.
Some customer environments deserve a different conversation.
46 labs is Built for the layer
Lumen is leaving.
Why ChoosE 46 Labs for your
customers’ voice-protected future?
46 Labs isn’t here to turn a carrier migration into an excuse to replace your customer’s entire communications environment. We’re here to give channel partners the infrastructure and expertise to solve the part that actually needs solving.
46 Labs started by solving carrier communications problems and brought that infrastructure experience to the enterprise. That matters when your customer needs more than replacement dial tone.
It means helping you keep their PBX in place. Their Teams call running. Zoom working the way it should. Their contact center operating normally. We replace the dependency, not the things your customer still depends on. And we give you one migration path across numbers, SIP, routing, toll-free, SBC infrastructure, UC integrations and global connectivity.
Because Lumen’s exit isn’t just a disruption — for the right channel partner, it’s an opportunity to walk into the customer with an answer.
Their Lumen contract may have an end date. Your relationship with them shouldn’t.
