5. Components of Unified IP
Four main components of UIP:
1. Telephony sub-system
(DCP/TA or TMS)
2. Application Servers
3. Database Servers
4. Web Servers
6. Components of Unified IP
Telephony sub-system (DCP/TA or TMS)- Provides Voice Telephony, Call
Control, and Telephony Interface to Network. Main functions include:
• Call Analysis (DNIS, ANI, DID etc.)
• Call Logging
• Call Transaction recording and playback
• Remote Monitoring
• Music on Hold
• Circuit Capabilities
• Inbound and Outbound call handling
• Call Progress and Answering machine detection
• VOIP
7. Components of Unified IP
Application Server(s) Contain the components that drives the Unified IP system by
providing core contact logic, managing database manipulation, and managing outbound
call pacing.
Web Server(s) Provides a set of web based applications which enables access to UIP
functionality using standards-based Internet technologies. Interaction Servers enable
Agent and Director functionality to be deployed as “thin-client” web based applications,
reducing deployment time and cost.
Database Server(s) Manages Real time operations data, Configuration data, Reporting
(Real time/historical) and Recording data.

Editor's Notes
When a customer places a call (A) to one of your company’s inbound numbers, the
DCP (B) accepts the call on a specific channel and sends a message through dcpsrv
running on the Telephony Adapter Server (C) to CC2DCP on the core server to
notify the CenterCord (D) that a call has arrived. The CenterCord (D) decides where
to route the call and then sends instructions to the Telephony Adapter (C) as to which
agent (E) should be connected to the audio. If data is associated with the call, the
CenterCord will route the associated data for that call to the agent’s workstation.
The CenterCord (A) selects a phone number from the customer record in a call table
and sends a message through the CC2DCP on the Core server to the dcpsrv on the
Telephony Adapter (B) to have the DCP (C) dial the number. The DCP (C) dials the
number. If the customer (D) answers the call, the DCP (C) sends a message to the
CenterCord (A) via the Telephony Adapter server (B) that the call was answered. The
CenterCord (A) will then send instructions to the DCP (C) via the Telephony Adapter
(B) to route the audio to a specific agent (E). CenterCord (A) will route the data
associated with that call to the agent’s workstation (E).
