- MCK Communications, Inc. markets and supports solutions that utilize Internet Protocol as a transport mechanism. MCK recommends running its solutions over managed network connections, where jitter, latency and packet loss, can be specified, and not utilizing the Internet as the network. This is due to the Internets inherent lack of management and inability to guarantee Quality of Service (QoS) across the network. This white paper outlines MCKs position on this subject, particularly with respect to its single-user product, the MCK EXTender 4000 for IP. |

- This white paper provides Yankee Group's research for Navigating the IP VPN Market. In the spring of 2003, Cisco Systems Inc. contracted the Yankee Group to identify the drivers and tangible benefits that European enterprises were deriving from IP VPN environments. Their brief was to look at the decision-making process behind the range of IP VPN deployments across corporate backbones. They categorized it into three broad areas that are network-based IP VPNs fully managed by a service provider, managed CPE-based IP VPNs, where a service provider installs and manages equipment and connectivity, and "do-it-yourself" IP VPNs, where customers buy equipment from a vendor and connectivity from a service provider. |

- As more and more services migrate to packet-based delivery mechanisms, packet functions are appearing in most network domains. Service providers are viewing this convergence as an opportunity to reduce costs and improve efficiency in managing new services. However, before the operators can reap the benefits of network convergence, they must overcome the challenges they face on the network management front. This paper looks at the challenges in deploying and managing these networks, identifies the key requirements for managing converged networks, and describes some of the network management solutions that Alcatel is providing to enable service providers to manage the evolution of their networks. |

- The transition to IP telephony has begun in earnest and organizations are rapidly realizing the benefits of transporting and managing telephony and data on a single, global network. While the introduction of VoIP on an existing data network does not present significant bandwidth or management challenges, the introduction of videoconferencing does. This paper summarizes how the most challenging application, videoconferencing can be run along with voice and data on a global VPN while maintaining required service levels, and by extension, how videoconferencing services can be dramatically improved as a managed service. |

- The gateways interconnecting the UMTS (3G-324m), IP (H.323/SIP) and ISDN (H.320) video telephony systems are helping to make video telephony much more popular by breaking down the barriers between networks. It is in the interests of both fixed and mobile telecoms operators to deploy this type of technology because their video telephony traffic will be considerably increased by the larger number of potential users. This paper explains that the quality of service offered by this medium, enables them to offer long video streams as opposed to the video clips available today in 2G ("download and further play" model). |
