| Nice little systems
Right, VoIP is sending voice over a packet switched network. I've been working with Nortel, Aspect and Ericsson systems and their is a clear distinction on the infrastructure side. They require different components in the chasis configurations and IT infrastructure side connecting multiple campuses. It needs to have subnets set up, special cards to connect to the internet, CIR , layer 2 switches and its a lot of hassle to set up which translates into big $$$ for professional services. IP extensions are more robust and don't necessarily mean that much infrastructure
If you recommend a VoIP solution as opposed to IP extension feature, his quotes will be way out of what he has budgeted |
