OVERVIEW
The 3Com®Asterisk platform provides small-to-midsize businesses with
an economical compact device for delivering full-featured Voice over I
(VoI ) services. With Session Initiation rotocol (SI )-based software and
uClinux as the operating system, it offers a cost-saving and productivity-
enhancing nonproprietary alternative to a BX or key system, as well as
a rich, broad set of VoI capabilities that can be customized to match user
needs. The easy to deploy and use solution integrates with the STN
network and accommodates a mix of I and analog phones.
KEY BENEFITS
SHARPLY REDUCE TOTAL COST OF OPERATION
Businesses can implement an I telephony system with the 3Com Asterisk
platform for less than what it would cost to install a traditional BX or
key phone system. The simplicity of the solution reduces procurement,
deployment and administration costs.
MEET BUSINESS NEEDS FROM DAY ONE
The 3Com Asterisk platform offers a broad range of built-in business-
quality capabilities such as voice mail, auto attendant, unified messaging,
ACD call queues and conferencing. The compact device—able to support
up to 25 concurrent SI calls—also includes a range of connectivity
options enabled by four Central Office (CO line ports) and four analog
device ports or eight CO line ports, as well as a 10/100 uplink port for
LAN and WAN networks, 8MB onboard flash memory and 64MB of RAM.
EXTEND CONNECTIVITY WITH STANDARDS-BASED EASE
Support of the latest industry standards such as SI , as well as a wide
range of TDM protocols for handling and transmitting voice over tradi-
tional interfaces—including both U.S. and European standard signaling
types—creates a versatile, cost-effective bridge between next-generation
voice/data networks and legacy infrastructures, further extending an
organization’s connectivity opportunities.
