VoIP Analysis 8/31/09

A preliminary review by IT management of the work group recommendation has resulted in approval for a pilot implementation of the SV-8500 in a TDM mode. Further strategic planning for the deployment of SV-8500's either in a TDM or VoIP mode was deferred until after a Gartner review of the analysis and recommendation. Gartner's response via e-mail concurrs with the College position of staying primarily with TDM at this time. A Gartner analyst will be on-site in late September to review the entire analysis and answer questions in person.
