Internetworking with Other Avaya Products
|
IP Office will support the most appropriate way for communication with any other existing PBX's in a customer network, whether TDM or IP-based. With Avaya DEFINITY, MultiVantage, Avaya Integral Enterprise or Avaya Communication Manager (ACM), the protocols used will be QSIG or H.323 over T1, E1 or IP links
VoIP networking using H.323
IP Office (since release 1.1 in US and release 1.2 in EMEA) has been successfully tested to be interoperable over IP trunks with Avaya Communication Manager (ACM). The protocol supported is H.323 using industry-standard compression codecs (types G.711A, G.711MU, G.729A and G.723.1-6K3). The features currently supported are as follows:
•
|
Desk to desk dialing (basic voice call)
|
•
|
Calling/Connected Party ID number
|
•
|
Calling/Connected Name Presentation
|
These features allow for simple networking needs between IP Office remote branches to a DEFINITY/ACM at the main site.
QSIG networking using T1/E1 links (TDM)
Alternatively QSIG may be favored as the chosen signaling standard within multiple vendor environments and provides the following supplementary services which are also available between IP Office and DEFINITY / MultiVantage/ I55 /ACM (equipped with the relevant RFA licenses):
•
|
Simple Telephony Call/Basic call (ETS 300 171/172)
