VCX Connect 100 IP Communications Platform
Affordable, Reliable, Productivity-Enhancing IP Communications
3Com® VCX® Connect 100 platforms offer organizations with up to 100 phone users an economical IP telephony and messaging solution that delivers powerful phone features and supports multimedia communications based on Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). The platform's practical design and affordability helps businesses replace antiquated PBXs with VoIP solutions that handle unified voicemail/email messaging (a standard feature), support a full range of IP phones and interoperate with the PSTN. Migration from legacy PBXs to cost-effective IP-based telephony is facilitated by numerous VoIP gateway options. In addition, redundant configuration options help ensure business continuity even in the event of power or network disruption.
Standard 3Com VCX Connect 100 features let users make calls with multimedia devices such as SIP-based video phones or software applications such as the 3Com Convergence Client that offers a rich set of communications capabilities, including instant messaging and desktop sharing. The platforms can be enhanced with optional 3Com VCX IP Conferencing and Presence modules to enable remote collaboration with any combination of voice, video, and desktop sharing services—without the expense of external services. When combined with the 3Com Convergence Client, the VCX Connect solution lets users view a colleague's online availability status and make quick contact from a PC via click-to-IM or click-to-call.
For enhanced availability, VCX Connect 100 platforms support an optional redundant RAID hard disk and/or a redundant power supply. For ultimate availability, a secondary VCX Connect 100 server can be co-located with the primary, or even deployed in another office on the same network to provide geographic redundancy.
