VoIP - IP Telephony White Papers
Partners Collaborate to Help College Stay Competitve
Overview Menlo College is a four-year private college in Atherton, California, located midway between Silicon Valley and San Francisco. Early in 2000, Menlo College administrators faced the need to completely overhaul the existing campus telephone and data networks in order to keep the college competitive. Impressed with the technical expertise of the college's IT staff, VOICEPRO recommended a broader solution designed around AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video, and Integrated Data), a leading IP technology developed by Cisco Systems. In exactly three months, the new network was installed, configured and tested, and in August, as students registered for the fall semester, they received their IP telephones along with registration materials. Menlo College estimates that it handles about 300 student moves a year, at an average cost of $150, so annual net savings for this improvement alone could reach $45,000.
