Integrating
Sometimes the most important function of the
DEFINITY ECS is its control and coordination of all
your desktop tools and shared resources. It not only
communicates with most networks and equipment
throughout the world, but unifies them by translating
protocols and standards as necessary. The system is
designed to accommodate multimedia and network
integration tools. It also offers many features that
integrate computer and telephone. DEFINITY ECS’s
integrating capabilities and its association with many
leading-edge tools make it a good investment for
future growth. These attributes also enhance the value
of your related investments.

Reliable/Recoverable
DEFINITY ECS is inherently reliable by design. That
reliability can be enhanced by redundant
configurations (see "Configuring for
Reliability/Recoverability" in this chapter). Every
essential component in the system is designed to be
duplicated. For these reasons, adjacent systems
(network, power supply, etc.) are far more likely than
the DEFINITY ECS itself to fail. If something
connected to the system should fail, the DEFINITY
ECS keeps working until those systems are restored.
If the disturbance is great enough that the DEFINITY
ECS is also disabled, the system’s modular design
provides you many options for getting your
communications back into service quickly.

State of the Art
DEFINITY ECS is the first telecommunications system
to manage bandwidth precisely, which allows it to
handle high bandwidth multimedia information while
still conserving resources. It is also the first
telecommunications system to use RISC (reduced
instruction set computer) processors. The system is
designed to accommodate anticipated innovations
such as ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode).
