Avaya Unified Communications Solution, configured for 5,000
users at multiple sites, of which 500 are contact center
agents, was evaluated by Miercom for its environmental
impact. Miercom observed the system working as a whole
and individual components as well.
Avaya Communication Manager 5.1 IP PBX platform, augmented
with Avaya Modular Messaging and Avaya Meeting Exchange
conferencing provides feature rich functions for efficient
communication while reducing costs. Telecommuting, branch office
operation and remote system management are enabled, thereby
providing a viable alternative to large office complexes and
reducing business travel with effective multi-media services.
The analysis included verification of the Avaya solution through
hands-on testing in a lab environment under moderate load and
varying network conditions. Case study site analyses of UC
systems deployed in live network environments were also
conducted in this audit. The products’ power-usages were weighed
against their performance to ascertain true energy-to-service ratio.
In substantial size IP PBX environments, endpoint devices have
the biggest draw in terms of power consumption. The Avaya IP
deskphones proved to be very power-efficient and contributed to
the Certified Green rating. The new G650 Media Gateway is
impressive, and offers high-quality unified communications,
consolidated services, superior interface density and all in a
compact energy efficient device.
