Project :Business VoIP Solution for the the Large Business

For this market segment, a large business is considered to be one that has greater than 100 employees.

There is not too much demand from large companies to move to business VoIP solutions at the present time. This is because they have usually already paid a substantial amount of money for their PBX and they have the misconception that they would need to throw away their PBX in order to move to VoIP. However this is not the case and there are many Business VoIP plans that actually make use of the circuit switched PBX.

The Business VoIP service provider adds equipment that converts the circuit switched outputs from the PBX into IP packets and then passes them to a Voice Enabled Router that also handles the company data network. All of the IP packets, voice and data, are then routed to the internet often via T1/E1 or T3 lines.

The company may then remove the expensive phone lines or the Primary Rate Interface (PRI) that previously were sent to the PSTN. Typically, large businesses can save over 30% in their monthly telephony costs after switching to a business VoIP solution.

One possible Business VoIP solution for a larger sized business that already has a PBX is highlighted in the following diagram.

The PSTN and telephone lines or PRI can be removed from the system since all of the data and voice now travel over the internet. However, in practice, a reduced number of standard circuit switched phone lines tend to remain connected to the PSTN purely for backup purposes.

Note that for large companies that are moving to a new building or relocating, there is no better time to move to a business VoIP solution. If no PBX is currently owned the setup looks similar to the Small to Medium sized Business (SMB) diagram but on a larger scale.
