IP Phone System

Based on Voice over IP (VoIP) technologies, the IP phone system not only allows voice, data and video to share the same network cable (hence reducing cabling and support cost) but also offers many features normally not found or cannot be implemented under the conventional PBX system. As such, the university has decided to gradually phase out the existing PBX system and adopt the IP phone technologies in all new buildings and offices.

Initially, 300 telephones in Festival Walk (FW) are replaced with IP phones and the Phase I of the Student Hostel installed with 450 new phones. It is expected that the IP Phone system will gradually replace all 4,000 phones on the existing PBX system in the main campus within 3 years.
