  3. What We Already Have • Most IP-PBX’s and Endpoints are HD-Capable • Most existing LANs & WANs have bandwidth • Bandwidth(G.722) == Bandwidth(G.711) • Conferencing Benefits of HDVoice are well-known • Easier to identify who is talking • Better understanding of accented speakers • Distinguish words during double-talk • Overcome noise & other impairments • Better recordings (webinar playback) & transcriptions • Less repetition

  4. What We Already Have Everybody loves HDVoice when they hear it: We need to DELIVER! Most people are aware of impairments that make it difficult to READ Audio impairments can be just as debilitating but are not commonly recognized at least consciously Most people are aware of impairments that make it difficult to read. Audio impairments can be just as debilitating, but are not commonly recognized (at least consciously).

  5. What Nobody Wants • Extra effort to enable HD • Special dialing codes to connect in HD • Different phone numbers for HD endpoints • Advance preparation for HD calls • Audio artifacts / other issues when connected • Extra cost for HD!

  6. We Need Interoperability Service Provider Gigaset AudioCodes Cisco Polycom Shoretelsnom Avaya We have what we need to get started. Still pending: adoption of peering for SIP connections.

  7. Marketing Approach • HD is a “natural” evolution of communications • In every other technology domain, things get BOTH better AND cheaper with time! • Voice is due for an upgrade! • HD is a “feature” that should be part of every offer • Make it one element of a growing suite

  8. We Need No Extra Charges • G.722 uses the same bandwidth as G.711 • End-points and PBX’s are already capable • SIP connections are CHEAPER than PSTN • ZipDX charges for wideband are DISCOUNTED • We offer additional features to SIP callers

  9. HDVoice in ZipDX Feature Bundle • HDVoice makes conferences better, of course • Conference status displayed on SIP phones • No-codes conferencing, security, on-line controls & administration, websharing • Our latest addtion is real-time transcription • Automated or human • Serves as “index” to conference recording • Scroll or search; click-to-listen • Sounds better & more accurate in HD • Viewable during meeting & afterwards • Extremely cost-effective

  10. HDVoice is Ready • If you’re a Service Provider: • Enable SIP and G.722 connectivity • Price it appropriately • Integrate with “apps” (e.g., ZipDX) • If you’ve deployed an IP-PBX: • Enable HDVoice & connect to “HD apps” • Demand HD connectivity from your providers • If you’re upgrading equipment: • Specify HDVoice capability
