VoIP

 

Many IP networks experience unpredictable traffic characteristics resulting in jitter, lost packets and excessive latency, all of which could put the quality of enterprise phone calls at substantial and unpredictable risk. The switch's unique transparent auto-switch quality technology virtually eliminates any voice quality concern. To ensure a high quality call, this technology allows the switch to select dynamically when to route calls through the IP network or the traditional circuit switch network. If at any time during a call the switch senses the potential for voice quality degradation, interference or other impedance, the call is routed transparently to the PSTN. When the IP path is clear, the call is switched back to the IP network. The patented technology assures that all calls are routed to provide and maintain a high quality voice connection. Callers are never aware of the switching of their call and detect no changes in their phone experience.

Flexibility

No one wants to connect a new piece of equipment to a data network unless it is compatible with existing equipment. Many VoIP solutions today have proprietary architectures or protocols, thus requiring a substantial, continuing commitment to a particular vendor's solution.
This product is not dependent upon any particular vendor's product, so neither is the enterprise! The flexibility of this solution offers enterprises the luxury to explore a VoIP solution, and the ability to incorporate easily the transitional steps toward implementing a complete application-based VoIP solution. The switch is also highly scalable. It is available with options to support 8, 16, 24 or 32 channels, stackable to support up to 960 simultaneous calls per stack. The switch gateway connects to a PBX and PSTN via T1, E1, or PRI lines. For smaller and branch locations, it also supports 4 or 8 port analog and fractional T1, E1 and PRI.

Cost Effectiveness

Many executives are concerned not with the cost of VoIP equipment, but rather with the cost of network upgrades and additional trunk cards for the PBX. Many solutions also create concerns about the cost of installing and maintaining complicated new technology. The product supports both voice and fax transmissions, allowing enterprises to save on long distance toll charges, particularly on faxes, which can always be sent over the IP network. The switch gateway can route these calls over the IP, better utilizing the WAN and avoiding the PSTN toll charges. With its hop-off capabilities, the Gateway can route calls over the IP to reduce costs, and then transparently ‘hop off’ to the PSTN to reach off-net locations. No other VoIP solution can match this flexibility.

 

Internet over Satellite

As Internet traffic continues to grow at exponential rates worldwide, Internet services providers (ISP's) everywhere are faced with the challenge of keeping up with demand for network bandwidth and developing creative solutions for squeezing more use out of existing bandwidth.

Satellite communication has the unique ability to deliver bandwidth exactly where and when it is needed, irrespective of geography and local infrastructure. It is therefore becoming the natural high speed transport medium for a wide range of IP and multimedia applications the world over, whether for consumer or business applications - and at speeds of 2Mbit/s per user for Internet access and at up to 40Mbit/s per transponder for services such as data broadcasting.
