It seems that it is a commonly held belief that basic ADSL broadband connection is unsuitable for VoIP – unless you make it an uncontended link – and even then a typical ADSL uplink cannot support many calls. If research is to believed, the majority of SMBs are extremely enthusiastic about switching to VoIP, but believe that at present, the costs of ensuring quality and reliability make this only affordable for the larger enterprises.
If the basic IP protocol lacks the necessary QoS to guarantee voice services over a WAN, and the costs of overcoming these are prohibitive - are we going to wait until BT’s much over-hyped 21CN (now looking somewhat delayed) is rolled out nationally to take advantage of this pent up demand for converged services? There is another way, and it is affordable and here now!

Traditional approaches for encrypting data in transit such as IPSec and SSL are intended for wired networks with high-speed, highly reliable connections. In a mobile wireless network environment where data transmission speeds are slower and connections less reliable, traditional VPN performance suffers, frequently causing application failure, data loss and reduced productivity.

This White Paper explains in detail why IPSec and SSL VPNs fail to meet the needs of highly mobile workers, and how a Mobile VPN, such as NetMotion Mobility XE succeeds where legacy technologies fail.

This document will describe the technical issues facing organisations who
wish to deploy voice over IP either on their own IP infrastructure or over WAN
links to remote telephony servers. It will also explain how Voipex and ViBE
technology can solve all of these problems, and provide the highest density of
calls over the smallest available bandwidth available today, and how it can do
this on shared voice and data links without compromising call quality.

A key challenge faced by enterprise IT management is how to ensure the productivity of the growing population of mobile workers. A successful mobile deployment can empower mobile workers with the resources they need to be effective at the point of service, resulting in a more productive workforce, expedited customer service, happier customers and increased revenue. Selecting the right mobile solutions and managing today’s mobile enterprise, however, is not a simple task. Successful mobile deployments require IT management to take a holistic approach managing all elements of the mobile deployment, including applications, wireless networks and devices.

This white paper describes how Quality of Service (QoS) can enable organizations to maximize mobile worker productivity and fully leverage the benefits of their mobile deployments.
