Phybridge VoIP Enabler - Optimizing the LAN
By Susan J. Campbell, TMCnet Contributing Editor
Communications are an important tool for any business seeking to optimize interactions with clients, colleagues and partners. When trying to drive communications in an all-IP environment, performance quality is at risk if convergence issues are not addressed. With the Phybridge (News - Alert) VoIP enabler, the UniPhyer, the Local Area Network (LAN) is optimized to ensure a quality user experience.
The user experience should be the priority when migrating to unified communication and IP telephony. When a company places a priority on their network foundation decision with a focus on supporting current and future communications requirements, they can effectively maximize their return on investment and eliminate risks and complexities that tend to be inherent in deployment and ongoing management.
With the VoIP enabler from Phybridge, you gain access to the only network switch designed to deliver Ethernet and Power over Ethernet over a single wire pair with a reach of more than 400 meters. As a result, customers are transforming their existing voice infrastructure, into an IP network that serves as the ideal foundation for IP telephony. This deployment can compliment and extend the data network.
By taking the one network, two paths approach with this VoIP enabler, benefits are certain, including a quick and easy migration to IP telephony that is non-disruptive and significantly reduces risk, disruption and complexity. Companies will also enjoy the tremendous cost savings in deployment and management, as well as the voice quality with the UniPhyer backbone in place.
If the LAN fails, voice continuity is still guaranteed with this VoIP enabler. The total deployment experience is repeatable, predictable and scalable across all locations. The telephony investment is future-proofed with lower costs and easy change management. In fact, user data requirements change as they evolve to gigabit speeds.
This VoIP enabler will also ensure a highly secure network as there are fewer points of entry and the topology is simple to manage. The integration and management of the converged voice and data networks is seamless, and the green friendly solution is proven to extend the data network, as well as the cable infrastructure.
The Phybridge UniPhyer VoIP enabler will simplify the network topology for convergence to save time and money, while also eliminating risk and stress placed on in-house staff. The standard in the industry required layering voice onto the data LAN, limiting capabilities and impeding quality performance. Phybridge changed all that with the UniPhyer, offering customers choices when it came to implementing the converged network.
