Universal, Cost-Effective PBX/IP-PBX Solutions
THE SITUATION
Enterprise customers in Latin America are connecting to public
telephone networks via expensive, hard to manage analog lines. They
are looking to reduce costs and simplify network management by
migrating their networks to digital facilities. Phone companies are
under pressure to offload voice traffic from their end-office
switches by migrating it from analog to digital trunks that are
easier to deploy and manage.
THE CHALLENGE
- Many telephone companies and service providers use PSTNs that rely on CAS signaling, which is incompatible with ISDN-based PBX and IP-PBX applications.
- PBX and IP-PBX users want to connect their packet-based ISDN applications to R2 networks.
- PBX and IP-PBX vendors want to make new services, such as voice messaging and video conferencing, available to their customers.
- Constraints on capital spending are driving phone companies to maximize their voice switching assets by continuing to use their existing R2 digital facilities.
- Network management tools for both the IP and PSTN networks need to be integrated on one platform to simplify network operations.
THE SOLUTION
Now, PBX and IP-PBX resellers can take advantage of the synergy
between PBX products and SignalPath™enterprise signaling adapters.
IP PBX and PBX products provide connectivity to packet- based ISDN
at the PBX sites, while the SignalPath™ 201-SA (SP201-SA) enables
signaling conversion over digital networks based on R2. The SP201-SA
