Audio improvements § AGC: Improvements to Voice Activity Detector, increased robustness to typing noise§ Echo: improved AEC (improved power to eliminate echoes, improved robustness against bad devices)o Greater interoperability§ Implementation of Comfort Noise packet (CNP) according to RFC 3389 . The CNP does two things: tells the receiver when to switch to comfort noise generation (CNG) and gives the receiver an accurate measure of the background noise at the sender side. With OCS 2007 (Wave 12), the media stack did not have this, and at times would generate CN at too low a level. Overall the CNP is intended to address 4 audio complaints:· Hearing a ‘wooshing’ sound after someone speaks· Hearing a hissing/static sound during silence periods of a call· Hearing nothing during silence and thinks a call is disconnected· Hearing weird distortions after someone speaks or after promptso Latency improvements§ Support for early media § Achieves < 150ms E2E latencyo Video improvements§ Supports VGA (640x480) and HD (1280x720) @ up to 25 frames/sec in P2P calls§ Video settings under control of UC Admin thru in-band provisioningo Quality & Diagnostics§ Device-level enhancements to HW & SW.§ QoE Server includes Video, Gateway leg of the Mediation Server§ Ability to stitch different call legs and consolidate it to a single report§ In-call diagnostics to report on network impairments, network bandwidth limitations and bad devices§ Enhancements to reports to the QoE Monitoring Server§ Tools1.

You should usually have this discussion on the title slide. Talk about why the customer is speaking with you about UC, ask why they are interested in it and the challenges they are trying to face. Almost always the challenges will fall into the 4 buckets on this slide. It makes for a nice transition into the presentation and ensures that you have a discussion around the customer’s specific challenges vs. just telling them what you think their challenges are. When discussing the 4 areas of challenges on the slide, cover the following:Communications OverloadThis is primarily an end user challenge. Highlight that while more communications modes have become the norm (from phone, to phone + email, to phone + email + conferencing, to phone + email + conferencing + IM), end users are struggling with which communications modes to use and how to control how and when they are reached. So it is a combination of controlling how they communicate out and how people communicate with them. Also, as we have moved to an “always connected” work life balance in many areas, being able to shut off communication in down time or just to focus on something is critical. Distractions consume as much as 28% of the average U.S. worker’s day, costing $650 billion per year (Business Week, May We Have Your Attention, Please?, June 2008, Maggie Jackson) and while some of these are people looking on the web, ala Facebook, much of it stems from communications distractions due to people not know when they should interrupt someone or not. Clearly users need a way to control all these tools and a streamlined experience.Distributed teams, partners, and customersAt the same time that communications tools proliferate and controlling communications is becoming more difficult, most employees are seeing increased needs to work with distributed team members, partners, and customers. Whether it is someone across the hall or across an ocean, people need to connect and share information to succeed in the workplace. Sharing information and working together top many CIO concerns. This trend will only continue as organizations become more global, people take advantage of flexible work times and telecommuting, and customers and partners increase their expectations on how closely they work with companies.Security and complianceThe other issue we are hearing is that there is an increasing risk in insecure communications and that the need for more transparency is driving increased compliance needs. While communications modes proliferate, so do the attack vectors that people wishing to cause harm. And the cost of securing disparate systems is extremely expensive. Across communications modes we need to move to a more uniform security model that doesn’t incur so much cost. The same is true with compliance. As companies struggle to manage communications within their new and evolving compliance policies, they are also seeing increased complexity and cost.High cost of communicationsThe increased modes of communications, increased requirements people have in working together, and the increased need to manage secure and compliant communications in a world of increasing transparency are leading to increased costs for companies. In many cases the costs of not communicating are far higher than the costs of communication, so people end up paying the price. But the many different tools and the disparate networks bring in cost not just from the solution acquisition costs, but also the costs of managing and maintaining the solutions. Not to mention the costs that end users incur trying to use the solutions and playing communications tag over phone, email, and IM. Our studies show that the cost of managing communications solutions far outweighs every other cost element, so streamlining that experience on the backend is critical.These challenges, and the opportunity to help solve them, is what drives our investment in Unified Communications.
Description of the feature (Dial-in conferencing allows users to join an audio conference either via PSTN or voIP.)Differentiation from past OCS 2007 and/or competitors (Dial-in conferencing is a complete new feature in Office Communications Server 2007 R2. Please do no confuse this with dial-out conferencing available in Office Communications Server 2007.Compared to audio conferencing providers (ACPs): an on-premise solution provides cost savings as well as better control as the organization manages the solution themselves. Authentication happens against the organization’s Active Directory which may be viewed as more secure than the roles model utilized by ACPs.Compared to PBXs: Dial-in conferencing provides a seamless escalation process between audio conferencing and other communications modalities such as desktop sharing and video conferencing. Office Communications Server also improves the user experience by providing the Office Communicator interface for call management as opposed to asking end users to memorize DTMF codes.)Who it benefits and how(End users – time savings: 1-click join, only authenticate as much as you need (i.e. joining via Tanjay only requires the meeting ID)ITPros – money savings)How they get the feature (Dial-in conferencing is part of the ent cal, but users DO NOT have to be voice enabled to be able to use this functionality. There are no partner dependencies other than the connect to PSTN (via gateway or PBX).)
Single Number Reach - means that employees use a single telephone number on their business card. With single number reach, desk phone/PC and mobile phone will ring when an incoming call arrives. Outbound calling also gives the same caller identity regardless of whether the person uses a desk phone or a mobile phone. Call forward setting can be done directly from the mobile device (available only one the Windows Mobile client). This scenario was the highest ranking mobile UC scenario among 1,173 mobile users (source: Windows Mobile research)Employee value: 1.Improve responsiveness and overall productivity. 2. Provide a way to set up boundaries between personal and work life. Example: sales person doesn’t need to give his personal cell number to customers that might call him when he is out on vacation.Employer value:When an employee leaves, taking his mobile phone with him, customers will continue to call the enterprise single number that was given to them. Thus, the enterprise relationship with customers is preserved and maintained, even if a key employee departs.How they get the featureOffice Communicator Mobile is provided at no extra cost to customers who have purchased Office Communications Server 2007 and Client Access Licenses (CAL):Std CAL: for IM/Presence functionality Ent CAL: for single number reach (OCS need to initiate voice calls in our to support this functionality) Scenario:Alex select Call via Work (signal goes trough the cellular network data channel)Alex and Ben both receive call back from OCS (signal goes through cellular network voice channel+ PSTN)
An ITSP (Internet Telephony Service Provider) offers an Internet data service for making telephone calls using VoIP (Voice over IP) technology. Most ITSPs use SIP, H.323, or IAX (although H.323 use is declining)[1] for transmitting telephone calls as IP data packets. Customers may use traditional telephones with an analog telephony adapter (ATA) providing RJ11 to Ethernet connection.In the United States, net2Phone began offering consumer VoIP service in 1995.[2] Before 2003, many VoIP services required customers to make and receive phone calls through a personal computer.ITSPs are also known as VSP (Voice Service Provider) or simply VoIP Providers.A Session Border Controller is a device used in some VoIP networks to exert control over the signaling and usually also the media streams involved in setting up, conducting, and tearing down calls.Within the context of VoIP, the word Session in Session Border Controller refers to a call. Each call consists of one or more call signaling streams that control the call, and one or more call media streams which carry the call's audio, video, or other data along with information concerning how that data is flowing across the network. Together, these streams make up a session, and it is the job of a Session Border Controller to exert influence over the data streams that make up one or more sessions.The word Border in Session Border Controller refers to a point of demarcation between one part of a network and another. As a simple example, at the edge of a corporate network, a firewall demarcs the local network (inside the corporation) from the rest of the Internet (outside the corporation). A more complex example is that of a large corporation where different departments have security needs for each location and perhaps for each kind of data. In this case, filtering routers or other network elements are used to control the flow of data streams. It is the job of a Session Border Controller to assist policy administrators in managing the flow of session data across these borders.The word Controller in Session Border Controller refers to the influence that Session Border Controllers have on the data streams that comprise Sessions, as they traverse borders between one part of a network and another. Additionally, Session Border Controllers often provide measurement, access control, and data conversion facilities for the calls they control.A Session Border Controller(SBC) is a session-aware device that manages VoIP and MoIP calls at the borders of an IP Networks. VoIP 단말(갑)이 INVITE 메시지를 보내면 SBC가 이를 받아 SDP 내부의 사설 IP를 자신의 공인 IP로 바꾸어 소프트스위치에 포워딩한다. 수신 단말(을)은 SDP 정보안의IP 주소를 통해서 미디어 패킷을SBC에게 전송하고 SBC는 이를 다시 송신단말(갑)에게 전달함으로 NAT 통과를 지원한다.

Areas of synergy with Exchange:Active Directory - Our main source of integration will be Active Directory where we share information between our two products through AD. This includes information about the user (what Exchange UM server does the user connect to), the servers (OCS looks like a gateway to ExUM), and of course identity/authentication. MMC - Because we both have MMC snap-ins, you can administer both systems from the same administrative console
Synergy with Exchange: System Center Operations Manager - We both support SCOM (nee MOM) for health monitoring. This gives the admin one place to look for the health of their UC deployment.

New activity reports - Peer-to-peer voice & video, IM, Conferencing activity; Media quality reports - UC to UC, PSTN, Conferencing; Performance reports - Mediation server, A/V, conferencing server etc; Device quality reports - Per-user reportsDifferentiation from past OCS 2007 and/or competitorsThese reports work across communications modes, which simplifies management and tracking and lets you see the users’ overall communications experience vs. having to cobble together multiple reports from various disconnected communications systems. This feature is improved in R2 over OCS 2007.Who it benefits and howITPros benefit through a more complete view of what is going on and lower monitoring costs.How they get the featureYou get this in the enterprise edition of the server.I have no idea but your question piqued my interest, so I looked up MOS:(Mean Opinion Score) The quality of a digitized voice line. It is asubjective measurement that is derived entirely by people listening to thecalls and scoring the results from 1 to 5, with a 5 meaning that speechquality is perfect. The MOS is an average of the numbers for a particularcodec. Because MOS testing requires carefully prepared and controlled testconditions, the best way to get an MOS test done is to have it outsourced.
One of the key things to address with customers right up front, is what products are we talking about when we say Unified Communications. There is actually a long list, from Exchange, to Office Communications Server, to Live Meeting service, to Roundtable, etc. but it is could to simplify the message on the two key cornerstones, Exchange and Office Communications Server.Exchange Server is really the cornerstone in our Unified Communications solution. It has had tremendous success with customers, and Outlook, the desktop experience for Exchange, is where many users spend their time every day and the spot through which they manage their communications and their time. It is the launch-point for many real time interactions. It consists primarily of Email, Calendaring, and Unified Messaging (voicemail). Office Communications Server is primarily responsible for the real time interactions between users and it starts with Instant Messaging and presence, and then brings in unified conferencing and enterprise voice which some customers think of as telephony. This is the primary focus area of this deck.You can also expand this discussion beyond UC to UC & C, with collaboration being brought in. In this case you want to talk about SharePoint and Office. This is where the platform really shines from an end-to-end scenario perspective.
Our software-powered communications system provides enterprise voice, IM/Presence, and conferencing that organizations can easily create communications enabled business processes from while providing a future-ready foundation for tomorrow. Office Communications Server 2007 R2 provides a software-based infrastructure to delivery these capabilities rapidly without an expensive, long rollout of network and IP-PBX ‘forklift’ implementations.Extend Your Existing Telephony and Conferencing Infrastructure with Software-powered VOIPOffice Communications Server 2007 R2 uses standards and published interfaces to interoperate and integrate with your existing telephony infrastructurePublished and supported interfaces enable software-powered VoIP to be implemented alongside your existing PBX infrastructureEnables software-powered VoIP capabilities to communicate with users on PBX, PSTN, and mobile endpointsCall Management capabilities (forwarding, simultaneous ring, etc.) can be used with PBX/PSTN/mobile endpointsA solution that allows a PC-based conference user to directly connect to a conference room with Polycom and Tandberg equipment. Implement an Extensible Infrastructure built around software-powered VOIPOffice Communications Server 2007 R2 provides anextensible infrastructure for integrating with business process and user needs of today and tomorrowPublished and supported developer interfaces for extensibility and interoperability enable integration into existing applications and business processesBroad device support enabled by published protocols enabling customer choice, value and optimal end user experienceSoftware driven innovation enables high value capabilities today and ensures greater innovation and flexibility for future extensibility Build communications into your business processesOffice Communications Server 2007 R2 allows you to build business process solutions that bring together structured activities and information with your communications tools.The ability to embed presence and communication tools into existing business applications (like CRM or ERP solutions) allows end users to communicate from within the application in context of work they are doing.Software developers can build IM and email workflows like those often found in phone trees (using touch tone) using familiar development tools.
Talking Points:Microsoft’s software approach to UC also allows deep integration into server side business processes.Whenever a workflow requires someone to take a decision the software can now be embedded into the workflow to find such person at the right time and reach out via Communicator clients, custom clients or the phone, leveraging the security features and scalable architecture OCS provides.Think about the following features:High volume outbound notifications and alertsVia e-mailVia the IM clientVia the phoneOutbound Automated Agents via chat or the phoneOutbound form filling requests via chat or the phoneRole AgentsConnect to people based on Presence information, Skills defined as enhanced presence attributes, etc. Team Call/Astana is a great example of such a role agent.
Talking Points:Any developer can build communications into desktop applications, for exampleBuild “Enhanced Presence” into any applicationEnable the context sensitive contact listsEmbed real-time availability status informationPower up “Click to Communicate” Enable the use of Enhanced Presence to determine the best way to communicateDisplay communications context in LOB applicationsProvide context within the conversationDisplay PIM information from Exchange directly inside your applicationBuild Calendaring solutions based on ExchangeThe sample shown in the screenshot is the Agent Control Panel for Dynamics CRM 4.0, a product that is part of OCS 2007 R2.This is a screenshot of the Dynamics CRM agent control panel showing a view of the agents screen and the agent has just received a call from a customer. In order to answer the query, the agent needs to consult with an expert, so he searches for an expert from within the dashboard. Once the expert is located, the agent can IM with the expert or have a voice conversation to better address the customer’s needs.
TFS Spy demonstrates how the Unified Communications Platform increases the productivity of a development team by adding communication features to the software development tools the team uses every day. The demo scenario is built around a team of developers that use VS 2008 and TFS to write software and manage their project lifecycle. Understandably, members of the team spend a large portion of their day writing code for their product, but they also spend a great deal of effort making the team work together effectively, including:Collaborating – Much of the day is spent discussing design changes or reviewing code between peers. Often one developer will call another to discuss a check-in or a code change.Managing Processes – The team is very interested in various events that happen as part of their project lifecycle including build completion, build status (success or failure) and often need to take some action before the process can move forward (for example, checking in a fix to a broken build). Getting Information - Members of the team will sometimes need information when they are away from the office without access to their network, SharePoint sites, reports, etc.TFS Spy uses communication features built using the Unified Communications Platform to add value to these everyday scenarios.
Kapsch is Microsoft partner for Unified Communications launch: The company is already successfully implementing the new UC solutionAs one of the first domestic companies, KapschBusinessCom AG is already implementing the new Microsoft Unified Communications solutions in regular operations. Through the integration of Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007, Microsoft Office Communicator 2007, Microsoft Office Live Meeting and Exchange Server 2007 as well as other telephony applications, the company is providing an innovative communications solution that is both powerful and cost-effective. Based on existing TC and IP network infrastructures, all communication channels such as instant messaging, voice and video conferencing are all integrated via one complete platform.Microsoft is presenting its VoIP-based Unified Communications solutions for the first time in Austria on 24 October 2007. KapschBusinessCom is able to present its initial references right at the launch due to its close partnership with Microsoft. The company is one of the first in the country to use this new technology for its own internal communications. Approximately 600 Kapsch employees throughout Austria as well as Prague, Bratislava, Budapest, Warsaw and Zagreb are already working with Microsoft Office Communications Server and are profiting from the advantages of real-time communication. The entire telephony and IT environment has been integrated based on the IP network with 9 VoIP telephone systems from Ericsson, Nortel and Cisco. This opens up many new opportunities regarding modern communications options for Kapsch employees. Due to the close cooperation with Microsoft, employees of both companies are linked via a so-called “federation” and can profit from functionalities such as presence information and instant messaging when working together.“Our Unified Communications product line focuses on the efficient utilisation of the existing company infrastructure and the use of multimedia, mobile options such as presence information and video/web conferencing,” explains HaiderShnawa, Product Manager at Microsoft Business Division for Microsoft Austria. “Kapsch is the perfect reference for us in this regard. Kapsch is also a great partner for system integration due to its service experience and competence throughout Austria regarding IT and data networks, as well as TC solutions.”Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 is the platform for new real-time communications solutions: it is based on the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) standard. This enables Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 to implement dynamic VoIP call management based on the presence information of the users. The system indicates whether or not the employee is currently in a meeting, on a business trip, on holiday or at their desk, thus determining the best way to reach them. This enables employee contact to be targeted via telephone, mobile, IM or e-mail. Additional functions include easy-to-use audio, video and web conferencing, for example. It also enables instant messaging within existing software applications, services and devices as well as with business partners and public instant messaging services.Unified Messaging with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007Unified Messaging with Exchange Server 2007 is more than just a single solution for processing and managing e-mails: Using this system, voice messages (voice mails) can be sent directly to the e-mail inbox of the respective employee who can then listen to it as a sound file. Incoming faxes are automatically converted to a graphics file and then forwarded to the recipient’s in-box. Using voice recognition, users can access their in-box and calendar from any phone.Using telephone applications with Microsoft OfficeThe advantages of all system components are combined in the best possible way due to the seamless integration of all Microsoft Office applications with existing telephone systems such as those from Nortel, Ericsson and Cisco. For the end user, this means an easy to use system with optimal interaction between telephones at the office, mobile devices, business applications as well as e-mail. Special attention has also been placed on the use of existing IT and TC investments, and insuring cost-effective administration through the use of the company's standard software and user management systems.Kapsch Integrating Telephones, IP Networks with Business SoftwareThe basic requirement for a successful Unified Communications solution is the harmonious integration of the telephony infrastructure with the voice over IP-capable data network and all IT company applications. KapschBusinessCom, as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, is Austria’s largest provider of company data networks, and with more than 10,000 telephony customers, it has all core competencies required for a successful Unified Communications system integration. KapschBusinessCom provides products and services Austria-wide ranging from the analysis and design of IT system environments, smart customisation services, complete system integration to support and operation (outsourcing) of the complete solution. The Kapschsmart.Switchboard, for example, is a switching solution for hybrid environments in which Microsoft OCS 2007 is used combined with telephone systems from Cisco, Ericsson and Nortel. Kapsch has already trained over 100 Microsoft Certified professionals. Microsoft appreciates this leading position and has selected Kapsch for the “National System Integrator – Voice Partner” programme. Throughout Europe, there are only 15 Unified Communications Microsoft partners of this type who are profiting as an “early-adopter” from the latest technical information and training as well as the close cooperation with Microsoft in the area of sales & marketing.Kapsch together with Microsoft, Nortel, Ericsson and other partners have developed some interesting start-up packages specially for the launch of the Unified Communications solution.

OCS 2007 R2 is the only software-powered solution that brings together instant messaging, audio, web, and video conferencing, and enterprise voice onto a single platform. This means taking experience from separate, disparate communications modes and unifying them. What does unified mean? It means for end users, a single, streamline interface that allows seamless transition between experiences and simple controls for letting people know when and how they can reach you. For ITPros, this means a unified management and reporting experience, dramatically reducing the total cost of ownership. For developers it means a unified interface and tools like Visual Studio that work across the communications modes vs. separate interfaces for each mode.Unified experience. Unified Management. Unified Development.

Benefits: Time savings, expedited care and potentially reducing scheduled appointments.GE evaluated the UC landscape & built a proof of concept that integrates MS UC (IM, VoIP, Presence and Medical image sharing)(Dassault Systemes is another great example of UC embedded collaboration)This provides a DRAMATIC new collaboration capabilities never imagined for the physiciansThis was integration was done with the open and free tools available on the MS UC platformNext phase is taking this into beta in live radiology environmentsGreat example of how leading application ISVs are embracing UC platform
Talking Points:Development of communications enabled business process applications used to be extremely hard. Microsoft innovated by leveraging the Visual Studio environment and integrating Windows Workflow based UC activities into the overall Workflow Foundation.Simple drag and drop development now is possible to build sophisticated applications like Automated Agents (a.k.a. as query Response Bots) or IVR applications using speech technology built into the UC Managed API of OCS 2007 R2.Think about the following applications:Build inbound Query-Response BotsBuild chat self-service applicationsUses any Communicator client or custom built UC clientBuild Interactive Voice Response applications for telephone accessBuild Voice PortalsBuild touch tone or speech driven information or self-service IVR applications
POSTcti Live-PA Intelligent Call RecorderLivePA has been developed and extensively tested by our own software engineers and as a fully Microsoft integrated product it represents the best of breed solution to any call recording, scheduling and compliance needs. For more information please contact our dedicated sales team on 0870 1266633 or via e-mail solutions@postcti.comLive-PA is an easy way for Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007, (OCS 2007), to record calls and archive them in a straightforward searchable way. It does this by running an automated group of virtual assistants that appear as available or busy, and when invited into a call one will record the conversation and save the compressed file along with potential identification data for later retrieval. Recruiting a virtual assistant is done simply by dragging and dropping icons and the GUI appears very similar to OCS 2007 itself making it simple to use with minimal training. Immediate access is then available via your desktop computer, just like a Microsoft Word document.Features include:Easy call-recording with ID tagging for retrieval and voice tagging for call points of interestDigitally signed, secure files including call times, participants and entry / leave timesConference scheduling via Outlook calendar - participants automatically invited into callsIntelligent reminders by the assistant to tag calls correctly to enable efficient user retrievalSystem architecture ensures recordings cannot be lost or accidentally deletedIM conversation history can be recorded along with voiceDefinable privilege levels mean full control over what call files individual users can accessThese features translate into real life benefits as your organisation implements changes that enable Gershon efficiencies, the Transformational Government agenda and the Freedom of Information Act. In today�s operating environment organisations are increasingly being challenged with security and compliance and Live-PA ensures conformity with regulations from bodies such as FSA, DMA, ICSTIS, PCI and OFCOM.For increased information management options, Live-PA can be implemented in two ways. Hosted requires no recording hardware or software installing at a users site and instead uses our hosted solution, whilst Enterprise requires servers and software to be installed at a clients premises.Recruit a POSTcti Live-PA to manage your information recording.Create.

확장 가능한 커뮤니케이션 플랫폼 – 해외 사례
원활한 커뮤니케이션이 업무 프로세스를 개선시킵니다
“…다른 사람에게 말하는 대신, „신기술이 있습니다. 이 기술은 당신이 당신
의 문제를 해결하는 데 어떻게 그것을 사용하느냐에 대한 것입니다,‟ 우리는
그들에게 설명했습니다, „이것은 당신이 파악한 업무 프로세스입니다. 여기
에 우리가 어떻게 그 업무 프로세스를 어떻게 개선할 수 있는 지가 있습니
다.‟ 별개의 이슈로 보거나 한 제품이 문제를 해결하는 것이 아닙니다. 조직
전체에 걸쳐 있는 시스템적인 생산성 문제를 해결합니다..”

Web and Mobile Technology Manager
