7. UCC Market Trends
• Major UCC and IP-PBX vendors
• Increase focus on UC applications & features
• Move away from peripherals such as media gateways and E-SBC
• Migrating from proprietary IP protocols to the SIP standard
• …therefore more willing to collaborate with Best-of-Breed
vendors such as AudioCodes
12. Terminal Adaptors – Analog VoIP Gateways
• MediaPack 1xx Analog VoIP Gateways
• Connecting phones, modems, fax machines, PBX or PSTN

14. Enterprise Session Border Controller (E-SBC)
• Key component in smooth migration of
Enterprise customers to VoIP
• Almost all IP-PBX vendors rather avoid
dealing directly with IP-to-IP interop
• Connecting through AudioCodes E-SBC
• The E-SBC provides the enterprise
• PSTN Connectivity
• Interoperability
• Survivability
• Security
• Quality assurance
• E-SBC enables SIP Trunking
• Connecting the Enterprise TDM/IP PBX to
an ITSP (VoIP service provider)
• Toll bypass

18. Connection to Applications
• BlackBerry (RIM) Mobile Voice System (MVS)
• Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) application
• Unifying desk phone with BlackBerry Smartphone
• Calls are anchored in the Enterprise PBX
• Gateway / E-SBC is needed to connect the IP-PBX to the BES/MVS servers
• RIM & AudioCodes together are certified by Avaya DevConnect
• Strong selling point among Avaya’s VARs
• This is a pure channel play, demand to be generated at the VAR level
• RIM is planning similar certifications with more IP-PBX vendors (SEN, Mitel)

26. Unmatched Stability & Performance
AudioCodes uses separate processing engines for different gateway
functionalities:
Embedded CPU for AudioCodes VoIP services
DSP farm for offloading media-intensive applications from the CPU
Intel-based server for Mediation Server / SBA software
Result: AudioCodes provides better performance and better stability
Mediant 1000
27. Office Interoperability
