ABOUT TO CHANGE FOREVER.
Lumen is leaving voice.
WITH 46 LABS, You don’t have to
leave everything else.
Lumen’s voice exit puts an expiration date on SIP trunking, Voice Complete and other services — but changing carriers doesn’t mean changing everything else.
46 Labs provides the infrastructure and migration support to move your enterprise forward while preserving the systems, numbers and workflows already in place.
Keep the PBX.
Lose the dependency.
If your existing PBX and SBC environment still does the job, there’s no reason a carrier exit forces you to exit it.
46 Labs can move the SIP connectivity underneath your existing environment, port your numbers and establish the routing you need without 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 your new carrier can get it done. Which 46 Labs excels at — simplicity when it’s needed, dependability when it matters most.
Your users shouldn’t be affected by who carries their Teams and Zoom calls. And ideally, they’ll never notice when the carrier changes.
For organizations that use 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 you already use.
PeerEdge gives enterprises software-defined voice infrastructure, centralized management and global connectivity without forcing the business into another closed-communications ecosystem.
Better yet? 46 Labs specifically supports enterprise integration with Microsoft Teams, Zoom and other UCaas environments.
Change the carrier.
Not the way you work.
A migration measured
in people, not ports.
Moving a SIP trunk can be quick. Moving hundreds or thousands of people is different.
Seat-based UCaaS environments come with users, handsets, locations, call flows, training and small operational details employees only notice when one of them stops working. That makes the right migration plan just as important as the end of your route.
46 Labs approaches this transition as infrastructure work, not a license swap.
Map the environment. Determine what stays. Identify what you need to move. Then build the migration around the business — instead of the other way around.
For Lumen customers, this distinction matters. The underlying voice layer may be the thing reaching end of life, but it doesn’t automatically mean everything sitting above it needs to follow suit.
One toll-free number is simple.
A national 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. And 46 Labs brings the carrier-side experience to inventory, port, route and manage toll-free and geographic voice services without making your team manually shepherd every number through the process.
46 Labs already operates wholesale origination, termination and toll-free number infrastructure for carriers and enterprises. Because we know the value of changing your migration from a pricing exercise into an operations exercise. Which is where a carrier truly earns it’s name.
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 enterprises, 46 Labs can build the migration around the actual topology of the business: sites, numbers, platforms, routing and contact-center dependencies and the sequence in which all pieces and parties need to move.
PeerEdge was specifically built to bring fragmented vender communications infrastructure together under a unified orchestration layer. Because here a migration plan your IT organization can defend is the best one to make 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 determine what actually is affected by Lumen’s exit, what should remain untouched, and where 46 Labs can help you make the transition.
Some environments deserve a different conversation.

Lumen is leaving.
Why ChoosE 46 Labs
for a voice-protected future.
46 Labs isn’t trying to turn a carrier migration into an excuse to replace your entire communications environment — but when Voice infrastructure is your business, we make it our priority to make it our business too.
We started by solving carrier communications problems and brought that infrastructure experience to the enterprise. Because we know that matters when you’re buying more than just a replacement dial tone.
It’s making sure that your PBX isn’t rendered obsolete. Your Teams calls staying running. Zoom keeps letting you show up. And that your contract center stays intact.
We replace the dependency, not the things that need replacing. It’s one migration plan: your numbers. SIP. Routing. Toll-free. SBC infrastructure. UC integrations. Global connectivity. And just because your Lumen contract has an end date, doesn’t mean your voice strategy should.
