Making Converged Networks a Reality

The Cisco ICS 7750 is a new offering in the Cisco Architecture for Integrated
Voice, Video, and Data (AVVID) product line. By combining the elements needed
to build a complete IP telephony system, including data and voice networking, the
Cisco ICS 7750 provides a truly “converged” solution. The modular design of the
Cisco ICS 7750 gives you the flexibility to choose the capabilities you need now
while enabling you to add capacity, redundancy, and e-business applications as
your needs change.

Cisco AVVID

The Cisco ICS 7750 is built on the open and scalable Cisco AVVID. Cisco AVVID
includes three components: infrastructure, such as switches and routers; clients,
such as IP phones, H.323 videoconferencing equipment, and PCs; and
applications, such as call control. Cisco AVVID is an architecture for integrated
data, voice, and video over a common IP transport. For more information, refer to
the white paper

Architecture for Voice, Video and Integrated Data

Cisco IP Telephony Architecture

Cisco AVVID is an open, standards-based architecture for Voice over IP (VoIP).
Unlike traditional office environments, in which the data and voice networks are
separate (see

Figure 1-2

), in a converged network, the telephony and IP

components are integrated (see
