Branch Office Survivability

Application Overview

Enterprises are more and more looking for cost-effective transitions to all IP communications, to harness the savings possible by combining Voice and Data communications. Many of these Enterprises will select a centralized IP-PBX system rather than a hosted service to provide head office control of the system and network. However, when these companies have multiple sites as well as remote employees, they require a solution that will provide equivalent functionality to all sites, without having the cost and administration required when deploying a server at each site.

Such a solution however must be able provide the full telephony features of the centralized server, while providing security and critical survivability in the case of a network (WAN) failure, to ensure that the branch (remote) office is not isolated, and can maintain both “local” telephony as well as access to the PSTN.
