ShoreGear IPBX Voice Switches
Planning and Installation Guide B – 3
Since the ShoreTel 6.1 system is plug-and-play, a voice switch can be replaced in a few
minutes.
Thanks to the distributed call control software of the ShoreTel 6.1 system, there is no
system-wide single point of failure. If a single ShoreGear voice switch fails, all the other
voice switches continue to operate.
