Datametrix introduces Internet telephony with high quality and flexibility

Datametrix introduces Internet telephony with high quality and flexibility The demand for products that make it possible to use Internet for common telephony is increasing tremendously. The problem so far has been big variations in the quality of the telephone calls depending on other Internet traffic. Datametrix, a wholly owned subsidiary of NetCom Systems, therefore launches a solution from Lucent Technologies which, by the help of a special Internet server, routes the traffic via Internet when the quality is good enough, otherwise the traffic is routed via the normal telephone network. The users are not influenced and can make their telephone calls as usual. "There is a lot of talk about Internet telephony but there is a lack of solutions that can compete with normal telephony when it comes to quality. Our solution really works and gives companies lower telephone costs while maintaining a high quality", says Terje Andreassen, Managing Director at Datametrix.

The company´s leading knowledge as system integrator in datacom includes installation, integration, training, service and support of a secure and effecient datacom infrastructure for companies.
