The
Telecommunication Networks Internet telephones
provide support for a wide range of today’s
high-value e-Business applications, including Call
Pilot Unified Messaging and Symposium Call Centre
services. This rich, future-proof feature set will
evolve to support advanced services such as voice
activated dialing and corporate and personal
directory services.
In
addition, VOIP reduces costs by putting voice
signals on standard network cabling, as opposed to
having a separate cabling system dedicated to voice.
By eliminating the need for separate wiring to
support voice and data transmission, customers can
capitalize on the cost economies provided by a
simplified wiring system within the enterprise.
The Telecommunication Networks
Internet telephones are supported by multiple
technology Networks communication systems, including
Business Communications Manager, IP-enabled systems
(with Internet Telephony Gateway cards installed)
and Succession Communication Servers. This
industry-leading platform interoperability
facilitates growth and offers seamless migrations
across customer-premise and carrier-based solutions.
All three Internet telephones offer a
rich suite of business features designed to meet
current and emerging user requirements and
international icon-based characters and
multi-language support make them ideal for worldwide
use.
A telecommunication network actively
participates in defining standards-based solutions
that support the broad deployment of
VOIP across enterprise
environments.

Connecting
to the Internet is a fact of life for business,
government, and most households. The lure of
e-commerce, video on demand, and e-mail has brought
60 million people to the Internet. Once they get to
the Internet, they find out what it’s really like.
That includes long waits for popular sites,
substantial waits for secure sites, and horrible
video quality over the web. Nonetheless, Internet
users persevere.
However,
the companies who provide Internet services have not
been carrying on as usual. They realize that users
of the Internet are hungry for faster service than
phone lines and 56k modems currently provide.
Additionally, many Internet service companies seek
to increase their profitability by offering Internet
access, local phone calls, cable TV, and perhaps
long distance phone services to their customers in
one relatively inexpensive package. The solution is
a high bandwidth network with links to each
customer’s location. Implementing this type of
network has not proven to be easy.
None
of the available Internet access services offer the
right balance of cost, convenience, and speed.
Digital Power-Line technology could change all that.
It gives customers high speed Internet access
through electrical networks. Lower costs are
achieved because the service is implemented on
standard electrical lines. The service is also
convenient because it’s already in your home.
Internet access through Digital Power-Line would be
at 1Mbps, 20 times faster than a standard
phone/modem connection. |
