IP Telephony
The term Convergence, also know as multi-service networking, refers to the integration of data, voice and video solutions onto a single (IP based) network. Traditionally, voice traffic has been carried on circuit switched networks or networks made up of private lines and time division multiplexers. Pomeroy’s Infrastructure Solutions Team architect networks that present customers with an infrastructure, and environment specifically designed to enable powerful multi-service technologies. These multi-service or converged networks are often times deployed to support VOIP as the initial convergence of these disparate networks to increase productivity and save costs through management of one data source.

Our team has the necessary skills required for:

• VOIP viability analysis


• Converged network design for both the WAN and LAN


• Network Readiness Assessments


• Next generation Voice application assessment and deployment


• VOIP implementation services along with day two support


• Integration of IP Call Centers

Wireless Solutions
Wireless LANs enable users to establish and maintain a mobile network connection throughout or between buildings, without the limitations of wires or cables. Pomeroy provides a family of wireless LAN products that combine the mobility and flexibility users want from a wireless LAN product with the throughput and security they demand from a business LAN.

Until recently, wireless local-area network (LAN) products were used primarily in certain vertical markets-such as retail, education, and healthcare-where mobile users with a need for LAN access were satisfied with data-transfer rates of 2 megabits per second (Mbps) or less. To make wireless LANs more "mainstream," customers pressed vendors to develop a high-speed wireless LAN standard that would encourage interoperability, reduce prices, and provide the bandwidth needed by today's business applications. In 1999 the IEEE ratified an extension to a previous standard. Called IEEE 802.11x, it defines the standard for wireless LAN products that operate at an Ethernet-like data rate up to 54 Mbps, a speed that makes wireless LAN technology viable in enterprises and other large organizations.
Advantages of this technology include:

• Increased mobility within the enterprise, in addition to a traditional wired network


• Flexibility for frequent LAN wiring changes, either throughout the site or in selected areas


• Ideal for sites not conducive to LAN wiring because of building or budget limitations, such as older buildings, leased space, or temporary sites


• Flexibility and cost savings by a line-of-sight, building-to-building bridge to avoid expensive trenches, leased lines, or right-of-way issues

Pomeroy's Wireless LAN Specialists are recognized for their knowledge and expertise in building and maintaining end-to-end wireless network connections throughout or between buildings, without the limitations of wires or cables. These specialists focus on the enterprise and medium-sized business providing assessment, design and implementation services that combine the mobility and flexibility users want from a wireless LAN solution with the throughput and security users demand from a business LAN.
