SIP trunks perform some key call and session control and management functions, and serve in place of traditional access lines and trunks.ix Typically provisioned by carriers over T1 trunks, carrier-based SIP trunk services interface between carriers’ nodes and SIP-enabled customer premises equipment, such as a SIP gateway or IP PBX.x SIP Trunks also interconnect customer sites with hosted VOIP/IP centrex services, cloud/software as a service (SaaS) applications, and facilitate customer connectivity with IMS-based applications, like single number service (see sidebar). At the carrier, SIP Trunks interconnect to IP-based WAN services, VOIP/multimedia-enabled network nodes and from these, to the public switched telephone network (PSTN).

Because email and messaging capabilities are so critical, they have in some respects become like a utility: like electricity, for example, email is so critical to the operation of any organization that it no longer provides any substantive competitive differentiation between companies. Like other utilities, then, the goal is to a) ensure that service remains available as close to 100% of the time as possible while b) simultaneously being provided as inexpensively as possible. For many organizations, managing email internally is a thing of the past, just like producing one's own electricity is a concept of the past.
A growing number of organizations are finding that the way to accomplish this through the use of Microsoft Exchange as a hosted service, a model in which a remote third party provider manages all backend services for a flat monthly per user fee. The advantages of this approach for organizations that want to realize the benefits of Exchange are that uptime of the Exchange infrastructure can be very high and the cost of managing Exchange can be reduced significantly - typically more than 50% compared to on-premises management. Further, the use of a hosted Exchange service allows an in-house IT staff to be deployed to other projects that will provide more value to the organization as a whole.
This white paper discusses the benefits of the hosted model for managing Exchange. It also lays out the detailed costs of managing a hosted versus an on-premise Exchange environment.

A distributed ip based telecommunication system using sipIJCNCJournal
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technologies are integral to modern telecommunications because of
their advanced features, flexibility, and economic benefits. Internet Service Providers initially promoted
these technologies by providing low cost local and international calling. At present, there is also a great
deal of interest in using IP-based technologies to replace traditional small and large office telephone
systems that use traditional PBX’s (Private Branch eXchange). Unfortunately, the large majority of the
emerging VoIP based office telephone systems have followed the centralized design of traditional public
and private telephone systems in which all the intelligence in the system is at the core, with quite expensive
hardware and software components and appropriate redundancy for adequate levels of reliability. In this
paper, it is argued that a centralized model for an IP-based telecommunications system fails to exploit the
full capabilities of Internet-inspired communications and that, very simple, inexpensive, elegant and
flexible solutions are possible by deliberately avoiding the centralized approach. This paper describes the
design, philosophy and implementation of a prototype for a fully distributed IP-based Telecommunication
System (IPTS) that provides the essential feature set for office and home telecommunications, including IPbased
long-distance and local calling, and with the support for video as well as data and text. The
prototype system was implemented with an Internet-inspired distributed design using open source software,
with appropriate customizations and configurations.
