Telecommuting and remote office
Avaya R300 remote office
communicator (R300)
The R300 feature offers a cost-effective method for providing full functionality at
a remote site. The R300 provides remote telephony that has all the capabilities of
telephony that is connected directly. Through the R300, voice and data can share
the same WAN link between Avaya™ Communication Manager and the remote
site, thus providing voice and data convergence.
The R300 acts like a simple switch at the remote site to connect remote stations
and local access trunks. It supports VoIP and DCP, as well as analog line and trunk
connections. In addition, each R300 unit supports 12 remote dial access data
channels. A single Communication Manager switch can support multiple R300
units. The number of units supported by Communication Manager varies
according to the system model type.
If the R300 should go down for any reason, a minor alarm is generated. How soon
you are notified of the minor alarm can be set from the
REMOTE MAX ALARM field on
the
SET OPTIONS form. Minor alarms can be generated anywhere from fifteen
minutes to two hours from the time the disruption occurred.
