Proof of Concept for Microsoft Teams Direct Routing

EASY TRANSITION TO CALLING IN TEAMS

When Teams is integrated with an existing PBX, pilot users can be moved to Calling in Teams , while others users remain on the legacy PBX. Eventually, all users can be easily transitioned to Calling in Teams. The call traffic between these users remains within the organization during the transition.

Support for Analog Devices

If an organization decides to switch to Calling-in- Teams , but has analog devices such as DECT servers, elevator phones, or overhead pagers, these devices can be connected to Teams and the PBX/PABX phone system via Direct Routing. Call traffic between analog devices and Teams users remains within the organization.

What an article Can't Know

An article describes what applies to everyone. What varies from one organization to another is the inventory: which applications, which accounts, and which pieces of equipment are actually involved in your organization. The inventory determines the scope of the effort, and it cannot be summarized on a single page.

You'll be speaking directly with the engineers who will be doing the work, not with a middleman. We'll respond within 24 business hours.
