3 Com NBX: Combining Voice and Data into One Easily Managed Network

Schools look  for the most up-to-date, cost effective solutions. When it comes to telephony, schools require the usual call management features offered by traditional PBX systems. They also need reliability, cost-effectiveness and scalability that PBX systems traditionally don't provide.

Schools instantly recognize the value of the NBX system's ability to run voice and data on a single wire. The 3Com solution delivered all the features of a sophisticated call management system without the costs and support services associated with a discrete telephone network. 

An Innovative LAN Telephony Solution


NBX 100 is one of today's most innovative new telephony solutions. Based on a single cable system, NBX phones plug right into an existing Ethernet local area network (LAN). Since there is no need for separate wiring, no specialized personnel are required to handle the installation, saving customers both time and money.

 The system offers a wide range of customizable call handling options that allow growing small, medium and large enterprises to run their businesses more efficiently. Schools have found NBX's Automated Attendant, voice mail and voice mail to email integration to be major productivity advances for their customers.

Using NBX, transferring calls to voice mail and other extensions is also easier than before. The ability for each user to program their phone for voice mail and call routing  results in a more organized and professional image for  NBX customers.

For mobile users, NBX's Off-Site Notification feature helps them stay in touch: whenever an employee receives a voice mail message, the NBX system pages them to retrieve it from their PC or nearby telephone.

A Scalable, Cost-effective Solution
 

A school can manage its new phone system with NBX NetSet™, NBX's built-in browser-based utility which allows users or administrators to control the features on the phones efficiently and without having to place outside service calls. No particular knowledge of telephony is required. With NetSet, all incoming or outgoing calls can be monitored, and users can be added or removed in seconds.

And, distant schools can be tied together through existing data-links between buildings, allowing calls to be transferred throughout the district as simply as within one building. An example of this would be the Buckeye School in Buckeye, AZ, in which a 14 building campus was tailored into one voice and data network.
