eOn Communications, a provider of telecommunications offerings, has unveiled new communications platform eConn IP-PBX, which is a Voice over IP (VoIP) system that provides organisations with communications system designed to support 10 to 1,000 users.
The company said that the new communications platform uses commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and Linux CentOS, to provide teleworking functionality, conferencing and collaboration, automatic call distribution, and wireless capabilities.
The eConn supports an array of telephony features and consists features of Millennium and eQueue communications platforms.
In addition, the eConn can cluster multiple systems and IP devices together over IP or TDM based infrastructures, and supports an IP-Q.SIG protocol to provide feature transparency and interoperability as an IP gateway for existing Millennium, eQueue and traditional PBX systems.
The system architecture is based on Host-based Media Processing (HMP), which is a new design model in telecommunications that uses software offerings to perform voice processing functions.
HMP also provides non-blocking communications between industry-standard Ethernet LAN/WAN connections and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) stations and trunks.
