VoIP Solutions

Emerging trends such as the replacement of desk phones with multimodal wireless smartphones, the adoption of open, standards-based solution architectures and the shift to software-based PBX solutions are coming together to create a significant market for Voice solutions that deliver enhanced mobility to the enterprise.

Bluesocket is uniquely positioned to ensure that Voice is integral to its product line resulting in simplified WLAN and VoIP technology purchase, deployment and support for our customers.

Voice ready WLAN

Today’s businesses need to deploy voice over their wireless networks to improve collaboration, responsiveness and productivity. Wireless LANs are no longer just a convenience – they are a critical part of the enterprise infrastructure and must be designed to support voice solutions.

Voice Quality of Service - To ensure voice QOS, the Bluesocket WLAN solution supports Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), 802.1p, Diffserv (DSCP) and the 802.11e standard for voice prioritization on the wireless medium. Additional features such as admission control on a per SSID basis and minimum transmit rate options maximize available bandwidth and throughput for voice clients.

Secure Voice Over WLAN - The BlueSecure stateful inspection firewall ensures security of voice applications and restricts voice devices to those policies applied by the IT department. Role based policies prevent sending non-voice related traffic into the network, and devices which cause violations can be automatically disconnected.

Bluesocket provides an important security layer to the network because many of today’s available voice clients only provide rudimentary security and authentication features.

Extensive Multi-Vendor Interoperability - Bluesocket supports leading industry standard voice protocols including SIP, H.323, SVP, SCCP and is highly interoperable with multiple vendor solutions.

This enables IP-Telephony managers and integrators to have a wide choice in handsets, dual-mode smart phones and IP-PBXs from leading voice vendors, like Spectralink, Avaya, Alcatel, Cisco, Nortel, 3Com, Vocera, Nokia, Motorola, etc.

Edge-to-Edge architecture
By taking advantage of the Bluesocket edge-to-edge architecture, customers can design their networks so that defined portions of their wireless traffic are tunneled to BlueSecure Controllers, while traffic from other SSIDs is given access to an available application specific VLAN.

Applications such as VoWiFi benefit significantly from this solution architecture as call quality measures - such as jitter and latency - can be optimized.

SIPxchange communications solutions
Unlike proprietary VoIP solutions currently available, the Pingtel SIPxchange communications solution from Bluesocket gives small-to-medium-sized businesses control over when and how to deploy VoIP technologies.

As the industry’s only open source SIP-based IP PBX, SIPxchange not only removes the barriers that have prevented rapid and pervasive deployment of enterprise VoIP, but also delivers freedom from vendor technology lock-ins. Enterprises benefit from more flexibility in terms of integration and lower total cost of ownership.

Ready for Fixed Mobile Convergence
Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) is the next step in enterprise mobility. FMC enables dual-mode smart phone users to seamlessly roam between cellular and wireless LANs, receiving calls/messages and gaining high-speed access to data applications with a wireless connection anywhere, while on or off the corporate campus.
