Mitel Graduates with Kuwait’s Ministry of Higher Education
Ministry will deploy sophisticated IP communications to all staff!
KUWAIT CITY, Kuwait - January 23, 2008 – Mitel®, the trusted provider of IP Communications solutions, today announced that Kuwait’s Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) is to deploy Mitel’s 3300 IP Communications Platform (ICP) and Web-based IP phones to over 500 staff at the ministry’s headquarters.

Interesting to see that Mitel is doing it very well. Especially the 3300 IP Communication Platform. We are very happy with our own 3300 system.
Microsoft Partner first with hosted OCS
A Microsoft partner has become the first to offer Microsoft's new unified communications software as a hosted service.
Intermedia on Tuesday will begin offering Microsoft Office Communications Server (OCS) as a hosted service on a subscription basis for US$7.95 per user, per month, said Rurik Bradbury, vice president of strategy for Intermedia. The service initially will be available to users of Intermedia's hosted Exchange service, which costs $12 per user, per month. Eventually, the OCS service will be available independently of that service, he said. More info here

Enterprise Voice and Remote Call Control
Jens (Jens Trier Rasmussen) post an excellent item on how to implement Enterprise Voice in a non-DID (Direct Inward Dialing (DID)) scenario. Basically our own OCS Mediation re-route traffic from/to interoute.
On the other hand we have a IP-PBX Mitel 3300 and Live Business Gateway to enable RCC functionality.
So bottomline we use best of both worlds. The only reason for doing so is to give customers the best advice. Within a short time period I also post how to setup Mitel by using MES (Mobile Extensions Server) for Dual Forking functionality.
So our voice solution is build on:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 SP1 (mailbox server)
- Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 SP1 (Unified Messaging Role)
- Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 + latest hotfixes (Standard Edition Server - consolidated topology)
- Microsoft OCS Edge Server (Access Edge, Web Conferencing Edge Server)
- Microsoft OCS Mediation Server (connection with outside iSip trunk services from interoute)
- MITEL 3300 Ip-PBX (implemented by NEXCT)
- MITEL Live Business Gateway (LBG)
e-office demo environment:
- 2 users on RCC / Mitel configuration (fallback on Exchange Server 2007)
- almost all users are UC enabled on Exchange 2007 (UM)
- bunch of users is calling through OCS Medation Server, through Interoute iSip services to the cloud.
- 5 MITEL IP Phones (Hotdesk functionality)
- MOMC 2007 demo devices on Palm Treo
- MOC2007 (RCC enabled) how to configure RCC see my post on here (Step 7)
