Read MoreTelephony is all about hearing, and being heard. High quality, clear audio is vital for effective telephone communications. Using high quality, wideband codecs is necessary, but not sufficient to guarantee clear, intelligible conversations. The whole signal path must be designed with quality in mind. Moreover, the KX-UT series supports the wideband G.722 codec on all models, but that isn’t enough. In order to provide “best in class” audio quality, Panasonic has designed the entire SIP terminal range with enhanced loudspeakers and carefully crafted acoustic chambers to ensure a wide frequency response, while advanced filter design ensures that every word is reproduced faithfully. The outcome is clear, natural sounding voice reproduction, even under poor network conditions. This excellent audio quality is maintained whether you use the built-in handset, the high quality speakerphone or an external wireless headset such as the Plantronics Voyager range – the KX-UT series ensures fewer misheard calls, less repetition and better communication. Panasonic KX-UT series SIP terminals – Make yourself heard.

Read MoreFor organizations implementing OCS unified communications, SmartNode preserves investment in existing PBX phone systems, adding a rich set of IP-telephony features. Patton, the leader in business and carrier-class network access, connectivity, VoIP and mobile video-surveillance equipment—announces mutual certification for Microsoft Office Communication Server (OCS) and SmartNode VoIP gateways. Microsoft certified SmartNode media gateways (R5.6 and newer) in its Unified Communications Open Interoperability Program for Office Communications Server while Patton lists Microsoft as a Certified IP-PBX Partner. Having announced IBM Lotus Sametime certification in March, Patton anticipates completing Microsoft Lync certification in Q3. The Microsoft-Patton certification enables enterprises and integrators to select, specify and implement SmartNode-enhanced OCS solutions with utmost confidence. Patton’s SmartNode-OCS configuration guide facilitates trouble-free system turn-up. Most Microsoft-certified VoIP gateways are less scalable for interface types, port counts, and number of concurrent calls, yet Swiss engineered, US-manufactured SmartNode™ VoIP equipment typically costs less than any reliable alternative. “How do you fix a price on peace of mind?” said Burton A. Patton, Executive Vice President. ”Award-wining SmartNode VoIP equipment is industry-renowned for high quality and set-it-forget-it stability. Once you configure one you won’t touch it again. SmartNode™ just keeps on working.” Featured in an interview entitled “Patton Rocks the VoIP World with SmartNode,” Mr. Patton appears on the cover of April’s InfoTECH Spotlight magazine. According to Wainhouse Research (Implementing Microsoft’s OCS 2007 in Real-World Telephony Environments), few organizations...
