The 3Com® Convergence Applications Suite delivers a comprehensive set of secure, converged networking solutions to enterprises of any size. Supported by a series of 3Com NBX® and VCX™ platforms, organizations can now reduce costs, increase productivity, and improve customer interactions by leveraging their data infrastructure to deploy IP telephony, IP messaging, IP conferencing, IP mobility and IP contact center capabilities.

3Com IP phones (desktop and softphones) seamlessly work together with Voice over IP (VoIP) platforms and applications to cost-effectively deliver advanced communications to employees working from main, regional or branch offices or from remote locations. Wiring needs are minimized by having a single cable carry both data and voice traffic. Additionally, Power over Ethernet support eliminates the requirement for separate power connections. Dual switch ports on many phone models also allow direct connectivity with PCs.

The 3Com Convergence Center Client unifies secure, media-rich, SIP-driven applications. It lets users, wherever they may be connected to their network, conveniently click to dial or initiate audio and video conferencing directly from their PC or laptop.

With 3Com convergence solutions, ease of use goes hand in hand with sophisticated features and proven reliability. As enterprises increase their dependence on their communications systems, they require the assurance of business continuity that 3Com systems deliver—the 3Com VCX convergence solution, recognized as "Best Distributed Survivable, High-End IP-PBX" in the Best-In-Test results reported in the January 2006 issue of Business Communications Review (BCR).
