Multiple System Networking Brings  All Your Offices Together

You can network multiple Strata CIX670 systems – the ideal solution if you have a large system configuration and/or have offices in various geographic regions. You’ll provide these capabilities for all your offices:
• One integrated telephone system
• Centralized attendant services
• Share one central voice mail system
• Coordinated extension numbering simplifies network-wide dialing

•  Toshiba designed and engineered world-class networking capabilities into the Strata CIX670. Using QSIG protocol and Toshiba-specific QSIG elements, networked systems function as one integrated Strata system. Strata® Net delivers a rich set of calling features across multiple Strata CIX670 systems distributed throughout your enterprise.

•  Coordinated Numbering Plan: Strata Net can be configured to allow users to call each other across network nodes with simple network directory numbers. This eliminates the user’s need for access codes and network maps. Calls that encounter a busy or unanswered destination can be forwarded to any node in the network, including a centralized voice mail system or attendant.

•  QSIG Call Control: The Strata CIX670 conforms to the QSIG standard for Call Control. This is the basis for all Strata Net connectivity and interoperability with PBXs from other manufacturers.* QSIG Call Control provides for connection, dialing, identification of calling and called parties’ names and numbers and message waiting indications, as well as other features.

•  Alternate Routing: Each Strata CIX670 can be programmed for thousands of Strata Net routing patterns. This allows you to create networks in which calls can be automatically re-routed around network disruptions. Centralized facilities and features can continue to work and users will be unaware of problems while they are being repaired. Alternate Routing also permits Toll Bypass, enabling Strata Net to deliver a public call from a point in the network where toll charges are minimized. This built-in “Hop Off” capability automatically determines when the private network should switch a call to the public network.

•  Centralized Attendant: One attendant can serve an entire Strata Net. Station users only need to dial “0” to reach the centralized attendant, regardless of the node in which they reside. The attendant can reach any station in the network using its Network Directory Number. Trunks attached to any network node can be programmed to terminate to the centralized attendant. Their source and calling party information will be delivered to the attendant’s display.

•  Centralized Voice Mail: A voice mail system attached to any Strata Net network node can serve users throughout the enterprise. Unanswered calls are forwarded to voice mail. The source and calling conditions are identified and the appropriate voice mailbox greeting is played. The voice mail system can control message-waiting indications throughout the network as messages are left and retrieved. A single network can even support multiple centralized voice mail systems, with each station being programmed for the appropriate system.

•  Network SMDR: An external Strata Net call generates a call record at both the originating and terminating node for that call. Transit nodes do not generate records. The records can be stored in customer-supplied external buffers at each node. Polling call accounting software can gather and organize the data from multiple nodes. Local buffering provides survivability if a network disruption occurs.
