Converge Voice and Data Services for
K-12 Educators

Converge Voice and Data Services for K-12 EducatorsFor schools around the world, converged network infrastructures demonstrate their cost-saving and efficiency-enhancing benefits everyday. By leveraging existing cabling and management resources, by eliminating the need for many out-sourced services, and by offering built-in productivity tools, they save money and facilitate collaboration. In addition, built with interoperability and deployment flexibility in mind, 3Com® convergence solutions can overlay existing network installations for impressive return on investment.

For system users, the benefits are equally impressive. Particularly with 3Com convergence solutions, cutting-edge communications are immediately and easily available. Users unfamiliar with IP telephones or Voice over IP (VoIP) applications can quickly benefit from collaboration tools. Call forwarding, ad-hoc conferencing (both audio and video), find-me/follow me options can be accessed from a PC in the classroom or remotely from any network-connected location. Call handling controls are intuitive, yet offer sophisticated service options. Voice mails can be retrieved from email or from IP phones. Users can even move their own phones from one network location to another without losing any customized features.

Furthermore, converged communications systems can be more responsive in emergencies, allowing call recording and call broadcasting services that might otherwise require a diverse set of software and hardware installations.
