Emerald Data Networks Earns IP Telephony Elite Status
Company Adds Certification for the 3Com VCX Connect IP Communications Platform
ATLANTA, ATLANTA, December 4, 2008 – Emerald Data Networks, Inc., a leading provider of data and VoIP solutions in the southeast U.S., today announced it has become certified for implementation and support of VCX Connect, 3Com’s IP-PBX telephony platform for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). By adding this certification, Emerald has also earned the coveted designation of 3Com IP Telephony Elite Partner.
According to the 2008 Miercom Unified Communications Industry Study, VCX Connect is the most survivable IP telephony platform in the marketplace. Miercom, a leading, independent product test center, attests that VCX Connect’s performance capabilities are superior to that of comparable products on the market.
“As a 3Com Silver Partner, Emerald has been a leading provider of 3Com’s NBX telephony platform for many years,” said Darrell Rodgers, president of Emerald Data Networks. “Now, as a 3Com IP Telephony Elite Partner, we can also offer our clients the advanced business features and unified messaging that a SIP-based telephony platform makes possible. SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is a signaling protocol used for conducting multimedia communications — voice, video, email, instant messaging and video conferencing — over the Internet.”
To become a 3Com IP Telephony Elite Partner, a company must have a minimum of two technicians who complete VCX Connect technical and sales training and successfully pass certification tests in both areas. Emerald Data Networks completed its certification in October 2008. By becoming a 3Com IP Telephony Elite Partner, Emerald Data Networks demonstrates its commitment to providing businesses in the Atlanta area with more technology choices and better ways to leverage their technology investments to achieve business objectives.
