| Toshiba Launches Strata CIX40 IP Voice System for Small Companies Toshiba America Information Systems has expanded its Strata CIX family of IP business communications systems with the launch of Strata CIX40 IP business communication system. Designed specifically for small companies, Strata CIX40 supports up to 16 station ports and eight IP channels. The launch of Strata CIX40 completes Toshiba's transition of its entire product line to Voice over IP. As with Toshiba's other Strata CIX offerings, the new Strata CIX40 offers Toshiba's FeatureFlex adaptability capabilities, can be TDM-enabled, can be networked with any other CIX40 or larger Strata CIX systems, and provides a smooth migration path. Features included in the Strata CIX40 include: - Strata Net Networking - Strata CIX40 can be networked with all of Toshiba's Strata CIX family, including the CIX670, CIX200, CIX100 and other CIX40 systems. This allows large companies to use the Strata CIX40 for remote small or home offices and allows smaller companies to add additional networked systems as they grow. - Virtually All Features to All Toshiba Users, on Fixed or Mobile Devices - Strata CIX40 has been designed to deliver virtually every feature to every user, regardless of the type of Toshiba endpoint they are using, whether they are fixed or mobile. The system supports IP phones, IP wireless telephones, IP softphones on notebook and tablet PCs, and digital (TDM) and analog telephones. - Choice of Endpoints - Strata CIX40 is compatible with Toshiba's IP and digital telephones, Toshiba SoftIPT softphone for laptops and PDAs, and third-party SIP telephones (as tested by Toshiba). It also supports Toshiba CIX Digital and IP Attendant Consoles. - Traditional Business Phone Features in an IP System - Strata CIX40 delivers virtually all the features and functionality of Toshiba's traditional digital business telephone systems, taking advantage of decades of experience serving enterprises with voice solutions. - Ability to Mix and Match IP and Digital on a Single System - Unlike many competitive IP systems, Strata CIX40 can be TDM-enabled, giving users a choice of running a pure IP system or a mix of IP and digital TDM. This allows users to choose how they will maximize their systems and migrate existing equipment. Because it supports open standards, Strata CIX also works with SIP telephones. - Integrated Voice Mail - This Toshiba Voice Processing Solution is designed specifically for Strata CIX40 and delivers four-port, 40-hour integrated plug-and-play voice processing. Supporting up to 374 mailboxes, it is a fully featured voice processing solution with live message call monitoring, LCD feature prompting, soft keys, call record and much more. Easy to install, it plugs into the Strata CIX40 cabinet. This is an optional feature. - Strata Media Application Server (MAS) Compatibility - For more robust applications, users may choose Toshiba's Strata MAS, which allows multiple applications to be combined on a single media application server. Applications include Auto Attendant, Voice Mail, Automated Speech Recognition, Text to Speech, Unified Messaging, Interactive Voice Response, Automatic Call Distribution and Reporting, Web-based Personal and System Administration, Web-based Telephone Applications, and other third party applications. Strata MAS comes standard with Toshiba's Stratagy Enterprise Server Voice Processing solution, "My Phone Manager" personal administration tool, eManager system administration tool, and Toshiba's FeatureFlex adaptability tool that allows users to customize and add features. - Ease of Installation - Strata CIX40 is a compact, single-cabinet system that is designed for wall mounting and occupies very little space. The CIX40 system and voice mail option comes fully programmed to plug and play immediately when powered up and initialized. Strata CIX40 was designed, engineered, and built by Toshiba, based on the company's 30-year history of product and technology research and development in the United States and Japan. It uses a high-speed 32-bit RISC processor, DRAM working memory, and SRAM with lithium battery for back-up memory. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
