(Ebook) Voice Over IP: Systems and Solutions (Btexact Communications Technologies Series, 3) by Richard Swale ISBN 9780852960240, 0852960247

This book covers all aspects of telephony over IP networks, known as Voice over IP (VoIP). VoIP hit the headlines during the mid-1990's amid claims concerning its impact upon existing Switched Circuit telephony services. Whilst VoIP has clearly provided a focus for much debate within the telecommunications industry, there has been a clear gulf between hype and reality. This book examines VoIP as a technology and its consideration within the industry, the motivations for VoIP networks, a review of the status of the major components of a VoIP network and their development, and both current and emerging applications. This makes for essential reading for those with a technical or business interest in this rapidly developing area of telecommunications.Also available:Telecommunications Network Modelling, Planning and Design - ISBN 0863413234Location and Personalisation: Delivering Online and Mobility Services - ISBN 08634133820852960298
