Network Readiness Assessment
The Challenge of VoIP Implementations
With the push to implement VoIP solutions at a rapid pace and maximize the benefits of the new technology, many organizations do not take the time to undergo a full pre-implementation analysis of their IP network infrastructure prior to installation. This can be a critical mistake.
Many networks, as they exist today, are not ready to support VoIP, which means a network assessment is essential to the implementation process.
But how is it possible to guarantee a smooth VoIP implementation in a timely and cost effective manner?
D&A InfoTech has a structured approach to pre-deployment evaluation that can ensure a smooth and trouble-free process.
Onsite Infrastructure Review
A Key Element of the Implementation Process
During the initial design phase of your IP Telephony solution, D&A InfoTech conducts a site visit to identify issues which might imact the proposed design and impementation.
This enables us to understand your key requirements and expectations, and gives us the opportunity to review your existing infrastructure to determine any obvious areas where upgrades may be required, product selection decisions may be adjusted, and your individualized requirements can b determined.
At this time we can determine the optimum configuration for your organization's deployment, and allows us to develop a system design that best meets your needs.
Enhanced Network Evaluation
Getting the Whole Picture for Successful Deployment
Performing a detailed, pre-deployment assessment of your IP network infrastructure prior to a VoIP implementation is essential for a successful deployment. This can often be time consuming, resource intensive and expensive using traditional onsite tools and methods.
D&A InfoTech, through its use of state-of-the-art remote assessment technologies, can provide you with a reliable, accurate and cost-effective way to analyze your network so you can enjoy a smooth VoIP Implementation. With these specialized tools, we can quickly and easily obtain an accurate network assessment to isolate the cause of network problems in record time and with minimal cost.
D&A InfoTech’s remote assessment service will:
Search and discover all IP devices on a network
Measure and assess the quality of the infrastructure
Provide fault isolation and diagnostics when problems are identified
Provide complete assessment reports for evaluation
From a single point, with a Web downloaded sequencer, our tools will quickly pinpoint the exact location and cause of network problems. It is used on live networks to determine maximum achievable bandwidth measurements, detect excessive latency, and ongoing measurement of parameters that impact voice and data such as packet loss, jitter, utilization, as well as Mean Opinion Score (MOS), predictive MOS and other major contributing factors to poor voice quality.
Instead of using intrusive client-side agents, D&A InfoTech introduces a software component that performs the remote IP network path testing (called a Sequencer).
Unlike approaches that rely on network traffic sniffing, our tools allow us to perform both pre-deployment assessment and post-deployment troubleshooting to reveal the network's true ability to support VoIP solutions.
This solution is ideally suited to help determine your network readiness so you can manage the transition to VoIP in a timely and efficient manner. Our tools help to identify the exact cause and location of network deficiencies that negatively impact your implementation, so you can resolve them quickly and provide a well-structured and operationally sound VoIP environment.
