Siemens ICN - HiPath Solutions Brochure

Siemens ICN HiPath Solutions Brochure Spread 6 Hicom 300 H: Migrate larger networks toward IP. Enterprises like corporate campuses, high-rise offices or university campuses want and need to start enjoying the convergence IP applications that HiPath provides. But like any operation, you can't just toss out your existing infrastructure and start over. HiPath provides a smooth, scaleable migration path to IP that's ready when you are. Hicom 300 H leverages your existing network and cable-plant - whether it's T1, fiber optic or ATM - to create an easy platform from which to build an evolution path from a circuit-switched to packet-switched system with full IP capabilities. And Hicom gives you the flexibility to do it on a desktop-by-desktop basis, whenever and wherever you need it. Using gateways connected to remote shelves, you can extend a single Hicom 300 H system throughout a large campus or high-rise building using existing dark fiber. And you won't need to run a new cable to connect your optiset E digital telephones to stations where you already have a LAN connection. The IPadapter connects your optiset E directly to the LAN, delivering the power of Hicom over an IP connection to any desktop. With Hicom 300 H innovation, you benefit from lower support costs, greater flexibility and highly integrated communications. Once installed, the Hicom 300 H allows you to manage a full campus - corporate or university - as if it was one network. In addition, using fiber-distributed architecture, you can transfer full shelves within a 20-mile radius over your network. And in the future, you'll be able to deploy IP-distributed architecture to the campus locally or anywhere in the world over your corporate network. HiPath 5000: Go IP without starting from scratch.
