5 3G Eye Shared Experiences

6 Case Study 1: Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) Helps school to dramatically cut costs and expand digital education Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS), where more than 157,000 students attend 114 schools from kindergarten through high school, making it the state of Georgia s largest public school system. Challenges: legacy analog system can t support digital technology overall communications slow; poor QoS Cost concerns with aging analog system Teachers/students cannot collaborate effectively schools must keep pace with tech-savvy students no effective solution to meet the needs of homebound students Solutions Used: Benefits: new system embraces digital age major reduction in telephony charges my Teamwork dramatically improves home education VOIP network easily expands to all 114 schools

7 University Of Kuala Lumpur In Malaysia Empowers Students And Staff With Enhanced Colaboration And Communication Capabilities Case Study Based on Unified Communications We now have the ability to communicate and collaborate with each of our branch campus network, which was previously not possible. This adds another dimension in collaboration and sharing that will increase the breadth and depth of interaction for both our staff and students Challenges Mr Roslan Affendi Ramli, Head, ICT Division, UniKL Comprehensive communication and collaboration services for students and staff Simplified operational control of central and remote campus infrastructure Reduced total cost of ownership for networking infrastructure Solution Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Enterprise Communication Server VoIP and Integrated Voice Communication Apps Remote Access Server for remote workers Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850 & 9000 Benefits Increased productivity and efficiency through enhanced communication and collaboration Significant cost reduction for internal office communications and for communications between partners and branches Ease of maintenance
