Telecom Italia Packet Voice Migration: A Case Study
Overview In 1904, Italy's first long-distance telephone call was made between the cities of Milan and Monza, giving one of Europe's most voluble people a new way to communicate. Telecom Italia, Europe's fourth largest telco, is the first major operator to undertake a wide-scale migration to a converged infrastructure. The decision to overhaul and replace Telecom Italia's national circuit-switched voice infrastructure can be viewed as an evolutionary process. It is also tightly linked to changing priorities in current operator strategies. In 1996, Telecom Italia announced that it had chosen Cisco to implement a national Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network, with the aim to deliver various data communications services across a single network platform.
