Office Communications Server 2007 manages all real time (synchronous) communications including: instant messaging, VoIP, audio and video conferencing. It works with pbxnsip IP PBX, so business can deploy advanced VoIP and conferencing without tearing out their investing heavily in new phone networks.
Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 also powers presence, a key benefit of Microsoft unified communications that unites all the contact information stored in Active Directory with the ways people communicate.
With presence, you can see at-a-glance if someone is available and contact them with a click using instant messaging, a phone call or a video conference.
Office Communications Server 2007 also combines pbxnsip with open standards to make the telephone an intuitive, menu-based part of the computing experience. This unified communications philosophy extends from the organization of the underlying call routing, which includes pbxnsip features, as well as integration features that bridge the VoIP standards supported by Office Communications Server 2007 with implementations that use older standards.
At the centre of this integration is the Mediation Server role of Office Communications Server 2007. It provides a single interface and uses open-standard SIP for signalling interoperability. Mediation Server takes calls from pbxnsip on to SIP/PSTN Gateways and moves them onto the network using the adaptive codec, remote user, and security models that are the basis for call setup and media with Office Communications Server 2007.
Third-party products connect to Mediation Server using the SIP protocol. To provide you with the best possible deployment experience, Microsoft created the Open Interoperability Program, which enables PBX and Gateway vendors to qualify their solutions to operate with Office Communications Server 2007. Qualified infrastructure integrates smoothly with Office Communications Server 2007, includes detailed integration documentation, and supports the wide variety of possible calling scenarios.
