Excerpt from email from Software Specialist for National Technology Company RE; ECS Technician

“I wanted to take a quick moment to let you know how much James (ECS Technician) meant to us last week at _ Bank  in Beaverton, OR.  After working all day and having a smiling face show up ready to work at 8pm was a refreshing experience and helped kick-in my second wind.

James immediately brought in his tools and ladder, got with my team lead to get a layout of the land, and jumped in the mix pulling cables for us.  James brought a very professional, positive, and great work ethic to the table as he arrived.  We all worked throughout the night/morning to meet a tight deadline.  James rapidly did all we asked of him.  When he finished, he was quick to ask what he could assist with next.  He even took it upon himself to clean-up some cable runs and tidy everything up.  I caught him sweeping up the floors too as things were nearing the end. As I was tiring out, he continued tracing and running cables, inserting cards, labeling devices, etc.

Needless to say, James was a tremendous help!  I would recommend James to anyone needing his skills in the Portland, OR area (or anywhere for that matter).  You have a great and valuable resource.

Thanks again for all of your help!”

Today’s high-speed high-demand networks require state of the art design & implementation of the low voltage wiring.

ECS has many years of experience and hundreds of satisfied customers that rely on the structured copper and fiber optic cabling that we provide.

ECS is a licensed, bonded and insured structured cabling company that installs solutions engineered to meet any size job and install network cabling solutions that meet compliance standards for data, IT, voice, security, video, wireless and paging applications.

We begin by gathering the necessary information by performing a physical walk through of the site. Our cabling engineers then design, install, test, and certify, voice, data video and WiFi structured cabling systems in any type of building construction.

ECS tests and certifies using state of the art JDSU equipment. ECS accurately labels each jack from end to end and provides test results and “as-built plans” upon completion of each project.

ECS is a Licensed, Bonded, & Insured Low Voltage provider in the states of Washington & Oregon, primarily in the greater Seattle metro area and the greater Portland metro area.

Structured Cabling is a set of standards that determine how to wire a data center, office or building for data or voice communications, typically using Category 5/5e or Category 6/6A Copper cabling and/or Single-Mode or Multi-Mode Fiber Optic cabling

These standards define how to lay the cabling in a star formation, such that all outlets terminate at a central patch panel (which is normally 19 inch rack-mounted), from where it can be determined exactly how these connections will be used. Each outlet can be ‘patched’ into a data network switch (normally also rack mounted), or patched into a ‘Power over Ethernet/PoE’ which is used to connect and power devices like IP Phones, IP Video Cameras, & Wireless Access Points.

It is normal to see different color patch cables used in the patch panel to help identify which type of connection is being carried, though the structured cabling standards do not require this.

The standards demand that all eight connectors in the Category 5/5e or Category 6/6A Copper cabling are connected. This is a good thing as it means that they fully support features such as Power over Ethernet which require the so-far unused brown cables.

Key Components:

Key components of Structured Cabling design include entrance facility, main equipment room, backbone cable, backbone pathway, Intermediate Distribution Frame (IDF), and horizontal distribution system.

Structured Cabling ‘Standards” require voice, data, and video wiring and electronics facilities within a building to support the newest forms of telecommunications. A series of standards has been developed to provide guidance in designing new buildings and remodeling older facilities.

Some facilities that need to be taken into consideration are:

• • Building entrance facilities
• • Entrance wiring closets
• • Floor wiring closets
• • Lightning protection
• • Grounding,
• • Backbone raceways,
• • Horizontal raceways,
• • Backbone wiring
• • Horizontal wiring.

Your network is one of your company’s most valuable assets.

You should be able to use the power of exploding technology and make it work for you. Every minute spent tracking data, reconfiguring your cables or searching for the source of a problem means loss of time and productivity.

Cable documentation can help maintain the integrity of the network by tracking the continuity through equipment, patch cords, cross-connects, connectors, cables, and outlets. It encompasses the design and maintenance of the cable. Cable documentation can save you from system downtime, giving you the power to configure your cable so you have fewer network problems.

Cable documentation can:

• • Reduce time to modify the original installation.
• • Minimize network downtime.
• • Increase the life of cabling infrastructure.
• • Reduce the number of technicians needed to troubleshoot problems.

Develop a Network Management system you can use to manage all of your cable, including all the connectivity, connectors, pathways, and device relationships to truly visualize and understand your network infrastructure.

Avaya one-X Portal for IP Office provides users control of their telephone from a networked PC.

Use this application with any extension; analog, digital or any IP telephone, wired or wireless, that is available as part of the Office Worker, Power User or Teleworker user licenses.

Avaya one-X Portal for IP Office is a server-based application that the user accesses via web browser.

For Telecommuter mode, One-X applications require answer supervision and disconnect detection for proper functioning. As a result, the one-X applications will not work with trunks that do not support answer supervision and disconnect detection.

Note:

one-X applications function on trunk types such as PRI, BRI, and SIP, however, they will not function on E1R2, T1 RBS and analog loop start trunks.

System administrators can control if Avaya one-X® Portal for IP Office can be accessed over a secure protocol only, recommended for hosted deployments to provide “secure only” access. The other option is to allow users to access the client over a secure and unsecure protocol (HTTP/HTTPS). The client application forces users to change their passwords and voicemail passcodes to meet the complexity settings configured by the administrator.

Through gadgets, Avaya one-X Portal for IP Office provides the following features:

• • Call information
• • Call and conference control
• • Presence and instant messaging notifications, monitoring and archiving
• • Contact import and export
• • XMPP groups displayed in the System Directory tab
• • Dial to user’s own bridge and invite other users to join
• • Conference call and other meeting scheduling including port reservations, email support and automatic report creation — available within the Outlook interface
• • One-click web conferencing hosting and single sign-on joining web conferences as a participant

Avaya one-X Mobile is an application that mobile users use to connect to IP Office.

Avaya one-X Mobile works in call-back telephony mode. For example, when a user initiates a call from the client, IP Office initiates a call to the caller’s mobile device and then dials the destination. This mode offers cost savings to users in countries where incoming voice calls are free or for users who have a cheaper unlimited voice plan as compared with a data plan.

The one-X Mobile Preferred mobility client also works in Voice over IP (VoIP) mode. In the VoIP mode, the client makes calls over Wi-Fi/3G/4G data networks. The client, using its underlying SIP stack, registers with IP Office over the data network and functions as an office extension. Users in countries where incoming calls are charged will see a significant cost savings in the VoIP mode especially when on Wi-Fi networks.

The availability of both call-back and VoIP modes on the mobility client will enable users to toggle between the modes based on their network connections. This will empower end-users to make a choice of the appropriate mode based on their voice and data plan as well as the availability and quality of their data connection (WiFi/3G/4G).

For example,

• • The user can choose the call-back mode when he or she doesn’t have Wi-Fi access and the

• 3G data connection is not providing good quality for voice.

• • The user can choose the VoIP mode when he or she has access to a mobile hotspot where a

• Wi-Fi data connection is available or when the 3G or 4G data connection is good.

One one-X Mobile Preferred mobility client supports VoIP mode on both iOS and Android devices.

VoIP mode is available with the Power User profile.

Users with Mobile Worker profiles can only use call-back mode.

VoIP mode does not require an IP endpoint license.

The following features are available:

• • Ring-tone selection
• • High bandwidth or narrowband codec selection based on the network connection available
• • Bluetooth headset audio control on VoIP calls
• • Conference screen
• • Contact phone number selection
• • Voicemail priority indicator
• • Swipe support for instant messaging on home screen
• • Group action support
• • Emoticons
• • CLID lookup in contacts for calls
• • Send voicemail as WAV in email
• • Enable or disable mobile twinning (simultaneous ring)
• • Enable or disable DND (send all calls)
• • Call log combined with voicemails in the event history
• • Call monitoring to see and interact with all calls
• • VoIP mode dial plan
• • Transfer calls as a third-party call controller (3PCC)
