Features and Benefits
Symposium Meridian LINK Services is based on

access to Meridian 1 call processing functions. It is an
important element of the Meridian 1 solution as it
provides a Computer Telephony Interface (CTI) to

Examples may include IBM CallPath and Genesys CTI
applications. (Nortel Networks also offer a fully
integrated, pre-packaged CT middleware solution -
Symposium TAPI Service Provider.)
