C3 will be attending UCISA’s Converged and Telephony Services conference next week, in Sheffield.

The event is an opportunity for exhibitors and delegates to share their experience of the IP migration process and what can be done to make the transition from TDM to SIP as smooth as possible.

C3 will be discussing the benefits of a “best of breed” approach to IP migration, in a joint presentation with Gordon Ross, Head of Telecoms at the University of Cambridge.

“We are really looking forward to the Converged Networks conference,” said Steve Adams, Sales Manager at C3. “It’s been a long time since all the UK’s HE Telecom teams were under one roof, and the market has obviously changed considerably in that period.

“C3 is known for being a specialist telecommunications provider but we have broadened our development path in the last few years. Our products have much more of a multichannel focus to them, in order to support integrated 360 degree communication.”

With many traditional PBX systems reaching end of life within the next couple of years, the pressure is on institutions to future proof their communication infrastructure. The temptation is to go for one supplier, and the promise of simplified installation and ongoing management. However there can be challenges with this approach, which C3 will set out at the event.

Converged Networks and Telephony is a UCISA event. It takes place at Electric Works, Sheffield, on 29 January. For more information and to book a delegate place visit www.ucisa.ac.uk.
