Reviews

""IP Telephony is a major growth area for telecom in the next 3 years - it is a service riding over existing, readily available transport technologies, so new companies can enter the market without efforts by the telcos to make the technology a success (unlike, say, DSL). IP Telephony is a true disruptive technology that if ignored by the incumbents, will grow to overwhelm them. This book takes the necessary step of explaining technology in terms of business needs. Camp's excellent proposal is always focused on why the reader should care about a particular technology, and what benefit the reader can gain from it."" - Steven Shepard, Series Advisor
