Symbol Technologies and Cisco Systems Team to Provide Complete Wireless Telephony Services; Integrated Voice And Data Solutions Demonstrated At Voice On the Net Show

BusinessWire, Tuesday, September 15, 1998 at 12:37

HOLTSVILLE, NY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 15, 1998--Symbol
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE - SBL) and Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ -
CSCO) announced today a complete solution for providing end users with
integrated wireless voice and data services.
The system is comprised of mobile computers and Symbol's
NetVision(R) wireless telephones operating over a Symbol Spectrum24(R)
wireless LAN infrastructure connected to the Wide Area Network (WAN)
via a voice-enabled Cisco 2600 or Cisco 3600 router or Cisco AS5300
access concentrator. The voice gateway provides a connection to the
PBX or PSTN through standard telephone connections.
The Symbol NetVision phones, based on Voice-Over-IP technology,
are presently installed in several end-user pilot test sites.
This solution is being demonstrated this week at pulver.com's
Voice On the Net (VON) conference held at the Ronald Reagan Convention
Center in Washington D.C. Attendees will be able to access the
Internet from their laptop computers while making a phone call to any
location in the world - all while roaming the show floor.
"We are pleased to be teaming with the leader in quality IP
telephony solutions," said Dr. Fred Heiman, Symbol's executive vice
president. "Cisco's voice over IP products are designed to provide
cost-effective solutions for IP telephony and build true multi-service
network infrastructures."
"By teaming with Symbol, we are truly changing the way people
work and live," said Kevin Kennedy, senior vice president for Service
Provider Business Unit, Cisco Systems, Inc. "Home office users are no
longer shackled by wires. They can enjoy the benefits of wireless LAN
and voice applications."
"The combination of wireless voice & data from Symbol and IP
telephony solutions from Cisco, provides a new high in the level of
flexibility for the end-user," said Jeff Pulver, noted industry guru
on VoIP technology & president of Pulver.com. " The experience of
Symbol in wireless local area networks and Cisco in wide area
networking has made truly mobile Voice over IP a reality."
The entire system is based on open standards. Wireless
communication operates under the IEEE 802.11 specification, with
end-to-end transport covered by the TCP/IP protocol. Voice
communications conforms to H.323, the ITU standard for real time
multimedia teleconferencing over the Internet and corporate networks.

vigorously. Are we up to it ??? I say yes.
