Smoothstone IP Communications has announced it is providing Wide-Area Network  or “WAN” links for the Georgia Lottery Corp.'s VoIP phone system.

 

Smoothstone (News - Alert) and Georgia Lottery worked together to implement a fully managed MPLS network solution delivering SIP trunking services to a ShoreTel-based infrastructure. The company has also customized a Survivable Remote Telephony solution specifically optimized for the client’s needs. This customization is aimed at ensuring business continuity and speeding disaster recovery.

 

With the Smoothstone solution the Lottery has a redundant voice trunk for all their offices through router enhancements which offer automatic failover in the event MPLS WAN or Internet links are lost.

 

Shelly Godfrey, chief operating officer of Smoothstone said that they want to give their clients a solution that best meets their needs, regardless of the requirements, even if it involves creative customization.

 

Smoothstone IP Communications is a nationwide provider of unified IP communications services to mid-sized enterprises. Earlier this week, the company made headlines with the announcement that its SIP Trunking Service was certified interoperable with Avaya (News - Alert) IP communications systems.
