What is Networking?

Networking telephone systems has traditionally referred to the connection of multiple location's so users from all sites were using what seemed to be a single telephone system. The most basic example would be the ability to dial only a four-digit extension to reach a co-worker at another location. Transferring calls across "network" is also commonly desired.

Traditional Telephone Networking

Traditional networking might also be thought of as "voice" networking. Essentially a dedicated circuit or connection would be made between locations to allow talk-paths so that users on both sides have features as if they were at one site.

These dedicated circuits (depending on distance) might be very expensive. These are sometimes referred to as "point-point" or "tie lines." When an organization has a high degree of traffic, or need for tight integration between users at different locations, these circuits provide value.

IP Networking

As telecommunications manufactures like Tadiran Telecom perfect the ability to convert voice to data, the natural progression is to use a common data network to carry both voice and data between sites. No longer is it always necessary to establish a dedicated voice circuit between locations. Carring voice as data is called Voice over IP or VoIP.

Standards-Based

Tadiran Telecom adheares to the QSIG networking stan-dard. Because we are stan-dards based, our systems are networked to legacy sys-tems by other manufactures.

Which is right for you?

If your organization has multiple locations, then networking should be a consideration. There are several factors that your Tadiran Telecom Partner will investigate with you to determine what type networking would serve your customers best. For example:

• How many voice calls between sites?
• How often would callers be transferred between sites?
• What level of feature transparency is needed?
• Do you currently have equipment by different manufactures?
• Do you already have a Wide Area Network or WAN?

Additional Information

For a smooth, cost-effective transition to a converged network, you may need to rely on devices from different vendors. Coral QNet incorporates the international QSIG standard into the Coral® family of communications servers, enabling you to build and later enhance your network. With QNet, any Coral can be an intelligent node or hub on a complex, multi-site network.

Coral and Coral QNet connect different sites over IP WAN, frame relay, or point-to-point leased data lines. From integrated IP trunk gateways to industry standard ISDN cards connected to Voice over IP switches and routers, the Coral can be configured to meet your networking needs.
