The Cisco IP SoftPhone is an advanced,
state-of-the-art communications application for your laptop
or desktop PC.
Enabled by Cisco AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video and
Integrated Data), the Cisco IP SoftPhone is a powerful voice-over-IP
(VoIP) software application that is fully integrated with
the Cisco Systems line of IP telephones.
The Cisco IP SoftPhone takes advantage of the usability of
a PC and controls your hardware IP phone; in addition, it
functions as a standalone software IP phone. An intuitive
user interface and context-sensitive controls make it easy
and fun to use. And, because the Cisco IP SoftPhone integrates
with Microsoft's NetMeeting, advanced multimedia collaboration
tools are right at your fingertips with a single click. Refer
to Figure 1.
The Cisco IP SoftPhone takes full advantage of Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) services that are part of
a Cisco VoIP solution. Calling a user is now as simple as
looking up a name in the company directory and dragging and
dropping it onto the Cisco IP SoftPhone. And with your personal
directory, you can always find your contact list and connection
information, even if you are not connected to a main directory
server.
The need for advanced communications services is growing
rapidly, and as IP-based telephony solutions continue to evolve
in "Internet time," the Cisco IP SoftPhone will
evolve right along with it.
The IP softphone is a flexible solution
- you have your phone extension available wherever you go.
The extensive array of features on the IP softphone make
it the natural choice for deployment in environments that
demand new IP based solutions. By using Virtual
Private Networks (VPN) you can use any Internet connection
while on the road to handle calls on your extension as if
you were in the office. Anyone who needs a complete communications
tool integrated with a personal computer to deliver Voice
over IP (VoIP) and integrate with the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN) will find the Cisco IP Softphone
a natural choice.
