High Availability

A ny outage that can result in lossof voice

servicesmust be minimized to at least .001%

probability.There is no over-stressing the

importance of keeping voice systems available.

A nd availability of other everyday servicescan

be just asimportant to smooth day-to-day

operation and user satisfaction.Applicationslike

IP surveillance cameras, email, data, and video

multicasting all benefit from a more available

central network. A llied Telesynsintelligent

network for IP telephony makes24/7/365

availability a top priority with a feature set that

maximizesuptime and emphasizesredundancy

in the event of a primary system failure. Key

availability featuresinclude:

Link AggregationRedundancy,Trigger Facility and

HardwareRedundancy

Security

Keeping your voice communicationssafe from

the same threats that can impact your data

network isa key consideration when making

the choice to implement a VoIP solution. In a

world plagued with hackers, identity theft and

running smoothly and quickly, but it lets

prioritize which applications are the mos

important, in peak times. Here are some

the wayswe manage it:
