By partnering with long-term multi-channel communications provider C3, the company has upgraded its existing C3 Apcentia system to a SIP-based solution and significantly increased its capacity.<\/p>\n<p>The new C3 system will simultaneously support120 SIP end points, in conjunction with Firestorm\u2019s existing TDM lines, giving Firestorm flexibility in IP migration while assuring reliability, scalability and investment protection.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Over the six years we have been working together C3 has become an important partner for Firestorm, both in the reliability of the technology and the responsiveness of their friendly support team,\u201d said Russell King, Director of Firestorm Media. \u201cThe seamless integration of our new Apcentia platform will provide greater capacity, reduce network infrastructure and simplify administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>By moving to a standards based platform and taking advantage of less expensive network cycles, IP Telephony is the obvious choice in the natural replacement cycle for telephony systems. But the enhanced functionality that IP systems offer also helps businesses to develop new applications that take advantage of the underlying technology. Firestorm\u2019s new system supports C3\u2019s fully configurable Network Conferencing application and its PhonepayPlus (PPP) approved Call Recording application, giving the company scope to develop a wider range of enriched applications for its diverse client base.<\/p>\n<p>The system is highly scalable so it can grow with Firestorm. New applications, such as PCI Compliant call centre services, can be easily \u2018bolted on\u2019 to Apcentia in response to changing market demands.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.firestormmedia.tv\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interactive TV specialist Firestorm Media has completed a cutting-edge communications upgrade that is designed to accommodate future growth and help attract other development opportunities.
