Designed for the trader voice community, the Universal Gateway Node (UGN) enables secure, scheduled dial-in access to always-on Hoot n Holler conferences—without the need for a turret.
The Universal Gateway Node (UGN) by XOP Networks provides a secure, scalable solution that enables PSTN dial-in access to always-on trader hoot rooms used by financial institutions. The morning hoot calls, critical for daily market strategy discussions, are traditionally accessed through expensive trading turret systems.

FinTech / Trader Voice
I run a Commercial Property Management firm. Using XOP Networks’s collaboration bridge all of our employees are able to conveniently operate from their respective home offices.
We have been using the XOP Hoot and Holler service for several months now and could not be happier. The audio quality is superior to our previous supplier and XOP’s support has been excellent. We were slowly losing our hotline subscribers but after switching to XOP the trend has reversed.
Our members use Hoot and Holler every day, close more business quickly and additionally benefit from the camaraderie it creates among them. I really wish we had known about XOP’s service earlier.
XOP Networks offered the only solution that truly made sense for us at Camanche. It’s been a pleasure working with them — the system is cost-effective, efficient, and reliable. Perfect for our 35-member volunteer fire department.
