E1 Versus T1 Telephony Environments
Phonebooks for Series II analog MultiVOIP units (MVP130,
MVP130FXS, MVP210, MVP410, MVP810, MVP210SS, MVP410SS, and
MVP810SS) can be operated in either an environment of either North
American telephony standards (potentially operating with T1 digital
MultiVOIPs) or of European telephony standards (potentially operating
with E1 digital MultiVOIPs). The configuration of the phonebook is the
same in either case. However, because the telephony environment is
different in each case and the examples used here must reflect those
differences, we have separate chapters for phonebook configuration in
North American (T1) environments (Chapter 6) and for that in
European (E1) environments (Chapter 7; this shapter). Consult the
chapter that best fits the needs of your voip system.
E1-Standard Inbound and Outbound
MultiVOIP Phonebooks
Important
Definition:
The MultiVOIP’s Outbound phonebook
lists the phone stations it can call;
its Inbound phonebook describes the
dialing sequences that can be used to
call that MultiVOIP and how those calls
will be directed.
When a VOIP serves a PBX system, the operation of the VOIP should be
transparent to the telephone end user and savings in long-distance
calling charges should be enjoyed. Use of the VOIP should not require
the dialing of extra digits to reach users elsewhere on the VOIP
network. On the contrary, VOIP service more commonly reduces
dialed digits by allowing users (served by PBXs in facilities in distant
cities) to dial their co-workers with 3-, 4-, or 5-digit extensions -- as if
they were in the same facility. More importantly, the VOIP system
should be configured to maximize savings in long-distance calling
charges. To achieve both of these objectives, ease of use and maximized
savings, the VOIP phonebooks must be set correctly.
NOTE: VOIPs are commonly used for
another reason, as well: VOIPs
allow an organization to
integrate phone and data traffic
onto a single network. Typically
these are private networks.
