Features

Strata Net Multi-system Networking

Strata Net Multi-system Networking
System Availability: All systems
Strata Net is a private networking application based on QSIG, an international standard for inter-
connecting PBXs. Strata Net delivers a rich set of calling features across multiple CIX systems
throughout the enterprise. Users benefit from transparent dialing and simple feature operation.
Advanced networking features include Centralized Voice Mail, Centralized Attendant, Network
SMDR and Station DSS button appearances across all nodes. Alternate Routing provides for toll
bypass configurations and automatic recovery from network disruptions.
Strata CIX systems are interconnected with DS1 (T1) circuits to provide ISDN-type inter-
connectivity.
Strata Net IP also provides full Strata Net connectivity and capabilities over an IP network (VPN
WAN, Internet, intranet Frame Relay, fiber, or wireless).
Up to 128 nodes can be accommodated within the Strata Net numbering plan. Up to four nodes
connected in tandem can give satisfactory performance with regard to latency. As with any
network design, transport delay, speech volume and other issues must be carefully considered.
You can set up network DN tables across nodes. Through system programming, you can attach a
node ID to non-redundant DNs, PhDNs and Pilot numbers. This enables someone in one node to
call an extension in another node without having to dial the node ID number. The caller dials the
extension and the system automatically routes the call to the node in which the called extension is
located and rings the called extension.

Coordinated Numbering Plan

System Availability: All systems
Strata Net can be configured to allow users to call each other across network nodes with simple
network directory numbers. This eliminates the user's need for access codes and network maps.
Calls that encounter a busy or unanswered destination can be forwarded to any node in the
network, including a centralized voice mail system or attendant.

Strata Net Basic Call Control

System Availability: All systems
The Strata CIX conforms to the QSIG standard for Basic Call Control. This is the basis for all
Strata Net connectivity and interoperability with PBXs from other manufacturers. Basic Call
Control provides for connection, dialing, identification of calling and called parties' names and
numbers and message waiting indications among other features.
