Protocol: Ready for Prime Time
--(
BUSINESS WIRE)--
Laptop Battery ISSUE: With multiple trials and one commercial VoIP
technology launch complete, Cox believes that VoIP
is ready for prime time. How will this impact its
telephone strategy for 2004 and beyond?
NEWS: Today, Wednesday, May 12, Atlanta-based Cox
Communications, Inc. announced it has published to
its web site (www.cox.com/pressroom) a white paper
outlining its telephony strategy and deployment of
VoIP technology.
Like most standard website servers, we use log files to collect Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), exit pages, platform type, time stamp.
Thinkpad PERSPECTIVE: VoIP technology has arrived. Driven in large
part
by Cox's commitment to customers and quality of
service, Cox's VoIP architecture clearly
differentiates the company from many other VoIP
technology offerings that are currently available
in the marketplace.
Voice Over Internet Protocol — allowing you to make long distance phone calls using your computer.
Microsoft -- With more than 1 million residential telephone customers
and
100,000 commercial customer locations, Cox will continue to
extensively leverage its
back-office systems,
experienced
people and processes for further VoIP market launches -
without stranding the capital it has invested in its
circuit-switched operations.
BT has announced that it is to invest 2 million to deploy a global voice platform based on VoIP (voice over internet protocol).
Laptop Computers -- Cox will expand its phone service footprint via VoIP to
commercial customers, thereby furthering its leadership
position in voice amongst its peers in the commercial
telecom
marketplace.
The internet service provider Wanadoo says that more than 150, 000 customers are now using its voice over internet protocol (VoIP) phone service.
Laptop Computer -- The regionally distributed architecture allows Cox to
introduce phone services to customers in markets where the
economics do not support the cost of a circuit-switched
architecture.
We use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to calculate Website usage levels, to help diagnose problems with our servers, and to administer our Websites. Your Internet Protocol (IP) address is an identifying number that is automatically assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). This number is identified and logged automatically in our server log files whenever you visit our Websites, along with the time(s) of your visit(s) and the page(s) that you visited. Collecting IP addresses is standard practice on the Internet, and is done automatically by many websites.
Desktop Computer -- In the white paper, Cox outlines its strategy for
deploying
VoIP; highlights its VoIP architecture; examines cost
comparisons of VoIP vs. circuit-switched technology; and
highlights its success as a telecom provider.
Notebooks WHO: David Pugliese, vice president of product
marketing and management will be
available for
interviews about VoIP, and Cox Communications'
overall telephone strategy.
