IT Architecture
Access Point Emergency
Concept
This is a survivability concept for IP-based
access points. An AP 3700 IP can be
equipped with an optional control unit
known as an emergency unit. If the central
IT switch is not available or an IP connection
cannot be set up to this switch, the emer-
gency unit assumes control of its own ac-
cess point and other access points that do
not have their own control unit. The IP infra-
structure between the access points must
be intact for this to happen. However, all AP
3700 IPs connected to an IT switch (up to
83) can be equipped with a survivability
unit. This way, you achieve optimum securi-
ty for all access points connected to the sys-
tem.
Signaling and Payload
Survivability
The optional signaling and payload surviv-
ability function guarantees the highest level
of availability for a HiPath 4000 system with
IP-based access points. The PSTN can be
used as a backup network for both the sig-
naling and payload path if the IP network
fails or does not provide the quality re-
quired. The available PSTN accesses are
used for the Payload Survivability. The Pay-
load Survivability path cannot be selected
automatically if no other connections are
possible in the IP network direction.
HiPath QoS Data Collection
The HG 3500 IP gateways support HiPath
QoS data collection. This means that LAN
data (for example, jitter, delay, packet loss,
buffer overflows/underflows, threshold vio-
lations) is sent to a central unit (QCU QoS
data collection unit). This data can then be
used to quickly and efficiently analyze any
IP network problems that may occur.
ComScendo on a Button Suite
In conjunction with a system phone (e.g.
OpenStage) or an optiClient, HiPath Com-
Scendo on a Button Suite provides new
kinds of features to increase workplace pro-
ductivity. The functions can be set up on the
end device to be called up either by sepa-
rate keys or via a menu that is called up via
a single application key. The connection be-
tween HiPath 4000 and the corporate direc-
tory is generated by HiPath CAP (Common
Application Platform – SW is supplied).
EasyLookup: Simple access to the corpo-
rate directory (LDAP) via search parame-
ters, output of results on the display and
direct dialing of the displayed phone
number.
EasySee: Output of information from the
corporate directory as PhoneCard on the
PC.
EasyMail: Opening of an e-mail window
on the PC with the e-mail addresses of all
contacts.
EasyShare: Starting Microsoft Netmeet-
ing on the PCs of all known contacts (in
the directory).
HiPath Meet-Me
Conference Server (MMCS)
Thanks to MMCS, all participants of a con-
ference can dial in regardless of their cur-
rent location and their infrastructure. All
participants simply call the same number
and are directly connected with each other
– without having to take the trouble of hav-
ing to call all participants. MMCS offers
1,000 meet-me conference rooms with up
to 30 participants. Design and editing of
personal conferences is performed by the
employees themselves, with settings for
regular conferences being saved.

Benefits
Reduction in network infrastructure
costs ("IP convergence") for
Investments,
Administration,
Carrier fees.
Reduced administration and application
costs due to:
Single system,
Central administration and applica-
tions.
More usage options for features and ap-
plications (single system)
Increased choices thanks to IP-based ac-
cess points with regard to:
–Number,
Scalability,
Resilience
Leveraging the benefits of an IP infra-
structure without sacrificing feature
richness, availability, and reliability.
Features for increasing workstation pro-
ductivity (for example, ComScendo on a
Button Suite)
More cost-effective connection to an IP
carrier (SIP-based)
