IP's pervasiveness makes it a natural choice for converged communications. Couple this with
growing customer demand for greater bandwidth, Quality of Service (QoS) and wide-range
mobility, and soon the inevitable occurs. Industry giants and start-up players are scrambling
to outperform one another with revolutionary Voice over IP (VoIP) solutions. Problem is,
customers aren't interested in scrambling revolutions. They want technology that is thoughtfully,
strategically and steadily evolved. They want products that won't be obsolete tomorrow,
migration paths designed to endure over time and investment protection for the long haul.
Moreover, they refuse to accept compromise in quality or performance. Ultimately, when it
comes to emerging IP telephony, customers want the power of choice. Which is precisely
what NEC delivers today: A fully-integrated
solution that enables your enterprise to
deploy VoIP capabilities.

Network Independence
NEC IP Telephony Solutions are network
infrastructure independent. An open and
standards-based architecture ensures compatibility
and interoperability with other transmission
media, such as ATM or Frame Relay. From the
desktop to the switch to the router to the edge,
transport media can be shared, mixed and
flexibly matched in any way you see fit.
