NuVox, a leading communications provider across the Southeast and Midwest, announced today that its VoxIP SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) Trunking product is now compatible with NEC’s UNIVERGE SV8100 and UX5000 IP communications servers. NEC passed NuVox’s strict certification program to ensure that customers will be able to quickly and easily combine NEC hardware and NuVox’s SIP Service. This allows customers to test and certify the interoperability between VoxIP SIP and NEC’s UNIVERGE IP communication systems.
VoxIP SIP is the latest in communications technology. It efficiently utilizes bandwidth to deliver voice and data services along with enhanced, business class features. VoxIP SIP supports IP communications from the user’s IPPBX (and handset) to the NuVox cloud, providing the foundation for multimedia communications. When complemented with VoxNET Gold, NuVox’s MPLS solution, SIP also allows customers to streamline communications.
“VoxIP SIP utilizes cutting edge IP technology that will change the way businesses communicate in the future,” said Sid Earley, Vice President of Marketing for NuVox. “Together with NEC, NuVox will continue to deliver the most comprehensive communications solutions to our customers.”
“In today’s economy, the business case for VoxIP SIP Trunking from NuVox has never been clearer,” said Jay Krauser, General Manager, Core Solutions and Engineering, NEC. “By combining the potential cost savings of VoxIP with the productivity benefits of our unified communications applications and UNIVERGE SMB platforms, NEC and NuVox should be on every mid-sized company’s list for consideration.”
NEC’s award-winning UNIVERGE SV8100 Communications Server is the ideal IP telephony solution for SMBs that wish to compete and grow their businesses over time. The UNIVERGE UX5000 is a comprehensive integrated solution for smaller businesses designed to meet the unique challenges of both business telephony applications and VoIP.
In addition to NEC certification, VoxIP SIP is compatible with a variety of premise-based IPPBX systems including Cisco, Avaya, Ingate, and Digium with more hardware certifications coming later this year.
VoxIP SIP Trunking with NEC’s communication servers is now available to business customers in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Tennessee.
