IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- LG-Ericsson USA (www.lgericssonus.com) announced today the availability of the newest in its line of comprehensive business communications solutions to support the broad-spectrum voice, video and data communications management needs of today’s dynamic business: the LG-Ericsson iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System. Available now through LG-Ericsson’s trained and certified resellers, the new iPECS-MG system delivers all of the functionality of a traditional PBX with the addition of productivity-enhancing features like Unified Communications for conferencing—voice and video—data collaboration, remote and roaming user support and scalability to deliver a seamless communication experience.

“LG-Ericsson has a long history of providing high-quality technology for data communications and telephony solutions for the SMB market,” said Iain Kenney, LG-Ericsson USA’s Director of Product Marketing. “The new iPECS-MG builds on our field-proven technologies and architecture, as well as on our understanding of the core SMB priorities: simplification, flexibility, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. A highly-reliable, extensible and feature-rich business telephony platform that integrates PSTN, IP and mobile networks cleanly, simply and in a way that’s supremely easy to use, the new iPECS-MG quite simply meets SMB priorities to improve productivity.”

As a hybrid system, the iPECS-MG supports complete TDM solutions as well as mixed deployments consisting of both IP and TDM extensions. Scalable and extensible, each on-site iPECS-MG server supports up to 414 ports, and as many as 250 devices can be networked across multiple locations to support large numbers of local or remote users across a campus, across the country or anywhere around the world.

As a standalone solution, the iPECS-MG can be combined with a full range of LG-Ericsson voice and data products and accessories to create a complete converged business communications system that meets a company’s broad range of unique needs today, with the flexibility to evolve over time if and when those needs change. Its extensive telephony features and value-added applications, in addition to support for a full range of fixed or mobile LG-Ericsson handsets (IP or digital), conference phones and soft clients enable countless configurations centered on the iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System to meet the needs of a variety of businesses. For data communications, LG-Ericsson’s extensive portfolio of data communications networking products include an extensive portfolio of certified and proven Ethernet switches for high-speed data transfer, secure Internet access, VoIP Quality of Service (QoS) and Power over Ethernet (PoE). And, it’s all tied together by the LG-Ericsson Network Management Solution; an easy-to-use software tool that facilitates centralized configuration and monitoring of all connected devices, both on-premises and remote.

iPECS-MG Solution Highlights:

• A hybrid solution that supports TDM and IP to protect prior investment in infrastructure and facilitate capitalizing on the benefits of IP
• Telephony features from the basic to the advanced, including door phone, alarm, paging, music on hold, DN (directory number), tandem switching, tenant group, auto attendant, voice mail, call routing, last-call redial and more
• TDM signaling processors that handle Caller ID, SMS, CPT and DTMF
• Distributed telephony with LG-Ericsson LDP 7000-series digital and LIP-8000-series IP desktop phone/terminals and ACT-50 conference phone
• In-building mobility via LG-Ericsson WIT-400 WiFi and DECT handsets
• Future-ready technology, built on open standards
• Centralized Network Management solution for easy set-up, operation and management of the full, converged data/voice/video network

The new iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System is just the newest addition to LG-Ericsson’s extensive portfolio of integrated voice-video-data communications solutions. The portfolio covers a broad range of feature/function/sophistication/price points, ranging from the small ipLDK-60 hybrid communications system to the new SMB-focused iPECS-MG, to the top-to-bottom Pure IP iPECS-LIK system. And, LG-Ericsson’s experienced, trained experts can work through the whole process with businesses—from selection to maintenance.

Available now through LG-Ericsson resellers, the new iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System smoothes the deployment of next-generation TDM-based communications environment and enables growth and/or transition to IP, enabling SMBs to protect their investments while migrating to a more flexible, adaptable, integrated IP-based comprehensive communications environment with sophisticated management features and an “evolve over time” architecture.
