Integrator Integ Communications will convert the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade's (DFAT) national and international telephony network to voice over IP in a deal worth more than AU$6 million.
Australia's enterprise IP telephony market grew 98 percent in 2004 compared to 2003, according to the latest report from International Data Corp (IDC).
The federal department responsible for regulating telecommunications in Australia has chosen local integrator BTAS to implement a new Alcatel-based Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telephony system throughout its operations.
Hotel chain Crowne Plaza has in the past several months completed the implementation of a converged voice and data network at its new Hunter Valley facility.
The cancellation of Telstra's proposed fibre to the node broadband network has hit Alcatel's bottom-line, with several billion dollars being cut out of a deal between the two announced last November.
Ray Gilbert, assistant vice president for IT enterprise collaboration at Alcatel Lucent, tells ZDNet.com editor-in-chief Dan Farber how the telecom services provider is addressing mobility needs and convergence challenges for the next generation of digital devices.
