Telephony media modules

The ten constructs for Distributed Office i120 contain one or more media modules. Table 3 shows the available media modules, and the slot or slots in which each module can be inserted.

Streamlined Deployment

A major goal of the Distributed Office offering is to minimize the time to deploy the Distributed Office systems at the branch locations. The total deployment time includes:

Unpacking, assembling, and cabling the hardware

Enter site-specific and other dynamic data

Acceptance testing

The first and third deployment items require a fixed amount of time for each construct. The time required for the second item, completing the provisioning data, varies according to the amount of data that needs to be added or changed in the profile that was loaded onto the system or onto a USB portable storage device, or "Disk on Key" (DoK).

The design activities described previously determine the type and the number of the Distributed Office hardware components for each branch location. The implementation process then uses data files called profiles to load the translations and other parameter values onto the i40 or i120 Distributed Office platform before it is shipped to the customer site.

In the design phase, the Sales Engineer uses the Avaya Solution Designer to create a purchase order that specifies the Distributed Office hardware for each branch location. For each branch location or group, the Sales Engineer specifies that the provisioning profile is:

Standard — The profile is one of a set of profiles that have been previously defined and associated with a hardware construct.
