Mitel has proposed a total solution for organizing the unified communications distribution system for companies based on Internet telephony technology - IP Telephone.

Canada's Mitel company has actively supported IP telephony and unified communications technology, and currently has many achievements in this area. The company is proposing a solution for the organization of IP phone systems that can be used for enterprise network environments at any scale. The company has not only software but a wide range of hardware products. In Russia, Mitel's product distribution company is a Telesoft system integrator. New Telesoft introduces new solutions of Mitel partners.

In Mitel's product portfolio, there are software complexes - Mitel Communications Director and Border Gateway devices as well as M itel Applications Suite software to build IP telephony network based on access commercial servers. update. It supports both SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and its own unified communications protocol. The final version of the virtualization system allows the construction of distributed phone complexes operating on VMware 's platform.

That allows calling the company's solution a cloud solution. In particular, Mitel's services not only play the role of soft switches (softwitch) but also control their own phones and television phones.

The most extensive function for organizing contacts is within the modular platform of Mitel Applications Suite. The company proposes a combination of unified communications, remote work, technical support and contact center (Contacts Center), hands-on conference and videoconferencing. and solve the tasks of business users.

Customers can choose several software installation options: IP-BPX (Internet Protocol Private Branch Exchange), software for Sun / Oracle, HP, Dell or IBM servers or as a software combination - the device has available. Solutions are built on open standards, which allows the use of components not only of Mitel itself but also of other manufacturers, often providing the ability to connect systems to both devices. already in the business.

In addition, Mitel also manufactures IP phones. These phones will connect to the local network and be calibrated to perform the functions of the phone device but with wider capabilities. For example, with this phone device, it is possible to write very different business applications.

The company also proposed phones that work with Wi-Fi. Thanks to these devices, a wireless IP phone network can be built in the company. An important attribute: These phones, when dropped into the enterprise network, will switch to operate with the corporate network and when out of Wi-Fi coverage, it will switch to operating with the mobile network, Do not lose contact. This operating scenario on the one hand allows to keep the connection constant, and on the other hand saves mobile calls.

Another direction of Mitel is TeleCollaboration technology (unified remote collaboration) that unifies telepresence with the collaborative working system and documents. In particular, the company did not emphasize the telepresence system built on a manufacturer's product: Thanks to open standards, almost every component of the room can be replaced with other similar products.

The exception is software to organize telepresence is own. Mitel standards minimize the bandwidth needed to transmit HD movies, for example, to organize a telepresence session, the Company recommends using 2.5Mbit / s while in competitive technologies and transport equipment. Operating with 5Mbit / s bandwidth. As a result, the cost of equipment for the room and operating costs can be significantly reduced, maximizing the use of conferencing components already purchased.
