Voice Over IP - Internet Telephony
Migration and Planning
Is your company looking to connect existing operations to VoIP? Jade Networks can help by evaluating your current infrastructure. from equipment to existing telecommunication circuits, providing a smoother migration plan to VoIP.
Current Equipment
A migration to a VoIP solution does not necessarily mean all your existing equipment will become obsolete. Often existing network infrastructure can be preserved and simply enhanced to accomodate the new types of services.
Telecommunications Circuits
Depending upon the location as well as existing WAN infrastructure in place, it may be possible to preserve existing solutions. For example a small office in Hong Kong connected by high speed DSL can probably leverage off the existing connection, with the possible addition of simple traffic shaping to ensure proper QoS for VoIP traffic.
The same customer, if in the Philippines, likely will not be able to use the existing circuits, and local leased lines solutions may be necessary to guarantee around the clock consistency in call quality.
Customers using IPLC (International Private Leased Circuits) may be able to significantly reduce costs and increase flexibility by a shift to properly managed bandwidth - especially if the connection terminates in a local or regional VoIP switch.
Will evaluate current infrastructure, public infrastructure options, to establish an approach that best matches the business objectives of the customer.
VoIP Equipment Sales
Can provide ATA's, VoIP phones, VoIP PABX, and Skype gateways. Small quantity through large OEM quantites can be handled. Custom programming of ATA's is available on some models. For many VoIP products, will work with the manufacturer to pre-configure many of the device options to your network - decreasing configuration complexity for your customers and increasing reliability and overall customer satisfaction.

Case Study: Jade Connections International Call Services
A new Internet Telephone Service to provide global presence for China factories and suppliers was designed for Jade Connections.
To assist China based factories and suppliers to communicate with customers and field offices, Jade Connections (JCL) has designed and built a scalable infrastructure for the provision of Internet Telephony Services (VoIP). These services are run from the Jade Networks datacenter in Hong Kong. Direct peering relationships with China Telecom and other International networks means JCL services are easily and quickly accessible, especially for customers located in China.
