Where SoundPoint IP / SoundStation IP Phones Fit
The phones connect physically to a standard office twisted-pair (IEEE 802.3)
10/100 megabytes per second Ethernet LAN and send and receive all data
using the same packet-based technology. Since the phone is a data terminal,
digitized audio being just another type of data from its perspective, the phone
is capable of vastly more than traditional business phones. AsSoundPoint IP /
SoundStation IP phones run the same protocols as your office personal
computer, many innovative applications can be developed without resorting
to specialized technology.
