Release 1.5 brings smartphone mobility, an even more robust voice mail platform, easier SIP trunk gateway setup and more.
In June, we launched Release 1.2 of Toshiba IPedge®, the
pure IP business communication system built on open protocols and a
slim (1U), industry-standard Linux server. With Release 1.2, IPedge supported video for audio-conferencing and Web collaboration on even the smallest model (IPedge for up to 40 users), and the communications system became more robust than ever.
Not satisfied with rave reviews from analysts and customers plus “Excellence” and “Product of the Year” awards from Internet Telephony and Communications Solutions, Toshiba made a good thing even better. IPedge Release 1.5, available in January 2013, brings a host of enhancements. Among the new capabilities, four are particular stand-outs:
Toshiba’s IPMobility client application for IPedge provides single-number reach to Apple and Android smartphone devices for both incoming and outgoing calls. Using the IPedge follow-me feature, calls to your office number can ring either sequentially or simultaneously to your desk phone and mobile phone. This feature works with most Apple and Android platform mobile devices, including Apple iOS versions 5 and 6, Motorola Droid, Sony Xperia™ and Samsung Galaxy, among others.
Outgoing calls are dialed through the IPedge, displaying the
office number caller ID and providing least-cost routing for long
distance and international calls. You can either dial directly through
the IPedge or have the IPedge call you back before making the outbound call in order to avoid mobile network long-distance charges.
IPMobility works with advanced system calling features such as
extension dialing, call transfer, call record and more. You can also
manage and control your voice mail messages, greetings, passwords and
recordings from a visual interface on your smartphone.
Keep using voice mail even if a server or network connection goes down.
If the power goes out, a cable is unplugged, or your primary phone system server becomes unavailable, you can still have voice mail. With Release 1.5, each member of a networked cluster of IPedge servers retains voice mail backup for every other node on the network. If a user’s primary server becomes unavailable, the voice mail application automatically connects to a secondary server. When the original server comes back online, the voice mail application reconnects to its original host. A system or network glitch is invisible to users and customers.
Set up SIP trunking gateways in a snap.
ADTRAN®’s Total Access® 908 and 908e gateways convert SIP to T1/ISDN-PRI and connect native SIP IPedge systems to legacy PRI trunks for cost-effective business communications. With Release 1.5, it is easier than ever to set up these gateways because you can now use the configuration wizard in IPedge Enterprise Manager. Once the SIP trunk channel group and service definition information has been entered into the IPedge database, the wizard automatically creates the configuration file. (There’s also an external gateway configuration wizard tool for AudioCodes gateways).
Wizards and utilities simplify administration at the core.
Release 1.5 brings more wizards and utilities within IPedge Enterprise Manager to simplify administration. For example, there’s now a wizard for importing and exporting the network directory number (DN) table from Toshiba’s Strata® CIX™ systems to IPedge systems and vice versa. IPedge also provides default system model database pre-configurations to get the IPedge system up and running within minutes.
In short, Release 1.5 makes the award-winning IPedge business communications system easier to set up, easier to use, and more resilient for better business continuity.
