Organisations globally are discovering the benefits, initially cost-related of video conferencing over an IP network. However, it is the issue of quality, security and reliability which is also addressed by Visionnet which ensures that the true benefits of Video over IP are realised.

Visionnet is a dedicated network designed and built solely for the application of video conferencing with a complete video conferencing network solution, including multipoint bridging and gateway services to both ISDN and IP sites.

In addition, Visionnet offers Exclusive Video Features to enable you to use video communications as an extremely powerful communications tool - as easy as a traditional telephone call.

Reliable IP Video Conferencing

Visionnet allows you to take advantage of IP video conferencing without affecting your existing IP network.

It is a dedicated network designed and built to provide the level of service and quality required for real-time, live videoconferencing.

Visionnet provides the quality, security and control you need for mission-critical videoconferencing over IP.

Visionnet provides for IP calls to ISDN sites via our gateway service. This allows you to call an ISDN-based system at will as you do now and ISDN-based systems can call you.

With Visionnet, you are able to take advantage of a range of network features and infrastructure for videoconferencing not available in a standard IP network. (See Table 1)
