Integrating Voice and Data Networking Optimizes Efficiency for the entire Organization
Voice Networking is absolutely key to both employee efficiency and customer service. Data Networking is key to overall operational efficiency of any business. But integrating the network that voice and data communications are using throughout the organization will assure OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE and REDUCE BOTTOM LINE COSTS.
OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE NETWORK WIDE
Add up total bandwidth required for voice communications and total bandwidth for data communications and you have the bandwidth needed for the enterprise network – NOT QUITE! The key is what time of the day the bandwidth is necessary AND do all data communications require instant transmittal. Let’s look at them one at a time:
1. Time of day traffic analysis. When analyzing voice and data traffic their peak usage is often at different times of day. Voice is typically in demand during “open for business” hours and even during those hours most businesses experience certain days and times that have heavier traffic than other times. Data communications is often on a different schedule. Certainly there is data traffic during regular business hours but often large chunks of data are transmitted off hours to back up servers or perform file transfers, etc. Therefore adding the voice demands and data demands by hour of the day provide the actual peak level that the network needs to accommodate to keep the organization working at peak efficiency.
2. Prioritization. While voice traffic must be transmitted immediately in order for telephone conversations, video transmissions and conference calls to take place – not all data is created equal. Some data must be transmitted immediately, for instance customer records to a customer service representative. Other data can be delayed for a few seconds without having any impact on the business – such as emails. The ability to prioritize the voice, video and different types of data traffic provides the means to optimize the network speed and keep employee productivity and customer service at the highest level possible.
BOTTOM LINE COSTS
