LG-Ericsson Unveils iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System

By Raju Shanbhag, TMCnet Contributor


Looking to support the broad-spectrum voice, video and data communications management needs of today’s dynamic business, LG-Ericsson (News - Alert) USA has introduced the newest in its line of comprehensive business communications solutions, the LG-Ericsson iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System.


The iPECS-MG supports complete TDM solutions as well as mixed deployments consisting of both IP and TDM extensions as a hybrid system. Scalable and extensible, each on-site iPECS-MG server supports up to 414 ports, and as many as 250 devices can be networked across multiple locations to support large numbers of local or remote users across a campus, across the country or anywhere around the world.

To create a complete converged business communications system, the iPECS-MG can be combined with a full range of LG-Ericsson voice and data products and accessories as a standalone solution.

“LG-Ericsson has a long history of providing high-quality technology for data communications and telephony solutions for the SMB market,” said Iain Kenney (News - Alert), LG-Ericsson USA’s director of Product Marketing. “The new iPECS-MG builds on our field-proven technologies and architecture, as well as on our understanding of the core SMB priorities: simplification, flexibility, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. The new iPECS-MG quite simply meets SMB priorities to improve productivity.”

With the addition of productivity-enhancing features like Unified Communications (News - Alert) for conferencing—voice and video—data collaboration, remote and roaming user support and scalability to deliver a seamless communication experience, the new iPECS-MG system delivers all of the functionality of a traditional PBX (News - Alert).

In addition to support for a full range of fixed or mobile LG-Ericsson handsets (IP or digital), conference phones and soft clients, its extensive telephony features and value-added applications, the company stated in a press release.

In April 2011, the company entered into a strategic partnership with Brocade to jointly pursue business opportunities in the high-growth Korean Information and Communications Technology (ICT) market. The agreement covers products such as Brocade FastIron WS and Brocade FCX Series switches.

The Brocade FCX series of switches provides new levels of performance, scalability, and flexibility required for today's enterprise campus and data center networks.
