General Equipment is transporting voice and data over their DCN network. With VOIP they no longer pay for long distance telephone service between their offices. The company uses Cisco telephones coupled with mobile, wireless phones. A new IBM ‘Blade Center’ supports home-based access to e-mail and to centralized software applications.
“Even though this was a significant investment,we are saving money with the ATM network and it’s easier to transfer calls. We increased our bandwidth 10-fold to each office location and we can define Quality of Service to prioritize traffic on the circuits. This was one of the easiest installs we’ve ever done. The guys at the Dakota Carrier NOC are practical and helpful. They helped us with the Local Exchange Companies and handled all the ‘last mile connections.’
"They truly are a one-stop shop and they help us monitor the system for potential problems before they occur.”
