Advantages
The NEAX 2000 IPS provides a unique set of advantages to users who seek an advanced
information system that is both flexible and dependable. Through the use of state-of-the-art
computer controlled telecommunications technology, NEC is able to provide the following
advantages:
(1) Full-Featured System – NEAX 2000 IPS station users have access to more than 300 service
features that enhance user productivity, reduce operating costs, and improve communication
efficiency. In addition, the control, network and interface positions of the NEAX 2000 IPS
can
accommodate features, services and subsystems as required by specific applications.
(2) Network Integration - The NEAX 2000 IPS offers business, industries, hospitals and
hotel/motels the ability to access an extensive array of information processing and management
services by serving as the central controller of an integrated information network. The NEAX
2000 IPS reflects the philosophy of NEC Corporation to integrate C&C technology, and can
provide many voice and non-voice services.
(3) Flexible Line Size - Innovative Modular hardware and software design allows the NEAX
2000 IPS
to efficiently serve from 48 ports up to 1020 ports in a main plus remote environment.
Modularity gives the system the ability to expand from its minimum configuration to its maximum
capacity as the need arises. This unique expansion capability allows the system to grow in a
cost affective manner as the user requirements expand. Your initial system investment is
protected through growth capability.
(4) Energy Saving and Space Savings - Through employment of state-of-the-art technology in
the system circuitry design, NEC has been able to reduce power consumption. As a result, the
current consumption of the system has been reduced to 50% of that of any conventional
electronic PBX systems. This energy saving oriented system design allows for the use of much
smaller capacity main power equipment and air conditioning equipment. In parallel with the
energy savings, the space requirement for the system has been reduced to one third when
compared with that of a conventional electronic PBX system.
(5) Building Block Configuration - In a conventional switching system, various kinds of
equipment are mounted in a cabinet group and are connected to each other by use of
connecting cables. The NEAX 2000 IPS, however, uses a building block modular design. When
