Scenario:
The network requirements are increasing for your
growing business—you want to integrate more things
onto one converged network. You have customer-
facing needs such as integrated point of sale and
wireless scanners. In the back office you need desktop
computers, wireless laptop computers, printers, and
digital inventory control. And there’s building access
control, security cameras, and Voice over IP telephony.
Can your current network handle the load?
Solution:
HP ProCurve offers a simplified network infrastructure
design that accommodates cost-effective voice,
video, and data applications. It delivers robust
reliability through open-standards technology and
enables secure deployment of both existing and
emerging applications.
By using your data network to transmit voice and
video, you may achieve significant long-term cost
savings. Industry estimates show that implementing
a VoIP solution can actually reduce intra-office
communications costs by as much as 60%. In addition
to cost savings, IP networks can be easier to maintain
than voice networks.
