Voice Over Internet Protocol
Definition: Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, is the technology used to transmit voice conversations over an internal or external data network using IP packets (digital form); without loss in functionality, reliability or quality; and in compliance with the International Telecommunications Union specifications. The term is also used to refer to the hardware and software used to carry such calls over the network.
VoIP allows you to make telephone calls using a computer network, over a data network like the internet. VoIP converts the voice signal from your telephone into a digital signal that travels over the internet then converts it back at the other end so you can speak to anyone with a regular phone number.
AAG Systems can tailor and provide a truly converged business solution utilising the latest technology without relying on expensive phone switches and maintenance packages.
The Benefits of a VoIP system:
• Scalable. As VoIP systems are largely software based they can be expanded greatly with minimal cost.
• Reduce operating costs. Because a VoIP exchange is based on software rather than hardware, it is easier to upgrade and maintain.
• Improve productivity. VoIP treats voice as if it were any other kind of data, so users can attach documents to voice messages or participate in virtual meetings using shared data and video conferencing.
• Flexibility. Utilising soft phones for remote users, hosted exchanges to remove onsite equipment, non geographic numbers and a wide variety of hardware support gives a VoIP system true flexibility.
At AAG we make getting the right VoIP Phone System for your home or office a breeze. Our large selection and vendor neutral approach to VoIP Phone Systems makes sure that you get the right VoIP Phone System - whatever your needs or budget.
All of the VoIP Phone Systems we carry are feature-rich and offer uncompromised functionality, flexibility, cost savings as well as advanced features that substantially improve productivity. Every VoIP Phone System supplied is fully warranted and supported by our team of inhouse experts.
Ask AAG Systems to give your business a communications review now and reduce your company's telecommunication overheads.
IP CCTV & Security
With the significant deterrence factor behind digital video security, the findings of the British Chambers of Commerce Business Crime Survey that "CCTV security systems are considered to be the most effective method of reducing crime", is no surprise. Indeed, the use of CCTV video security systems is now widespread and is a key tool in the fight to reduce crime and protect public areas.
AAG Systems with our latest networking and VoIP solutions can design and implement IP CCTV into your company's network infrastructure. We can integrate into your existing analog infrastructure or indeed replace these low image quality systems with high speed quality imaging all at an affordable price.
Auto motion tracking, number plate recognition and night vision capabilities are just some of the technologies employed by our best of breed manufacturers such as Sony and Panasonic.
