TCP - IP White Papers

Cisco IP Communications for Business Ready Branch and Small Offices

Overview As businesses evolve and grow, the requirements and expectations placed upon their data and communication networks continue to expand. Traditional telephone networks, in particular, are facing increased demands for greater flexibility and integration with data systems and applications - which they are not positioned to meet. With the maturity and continuing industry-wide acceptance of packet voice technology, the delivery of voice services through a converged Cisco IP Communications solution becomes a natural choice when seeking an efficient and flexible voice solution. Once the choice to move to IP Communications has been made, the next step is to determine how best to deliver packet voice services. This paper provides some guidance on the different options available.
