Please note that installation options vary depending upon location, equipment manufacturer, and type.<br />

Locations such as Texas and the tri-state area also have a local <strong>Verizon</strong> installation/maintenance<br />

organization option, as well as National-based service.<br />

Video Teleconferencing<br />

Business travel has decreased dramatically. Videoconferencing provides the real-time experience of a<br />

physical meeting. <strong>Verizon</strong> can offer all of the video CPE–camera, monitor, codec, audio, and system<br />

control device–as well as the network, for a total videoconferencing solution.<br />

<strong>Verizon</strong> Enterprise <strong>Network</strong> Consulting Services. <strong>Verizon</strong>'s Enterprise <strong>Network</strong> Consulting Services are<br />

value-added planning services designed to assist customers in the strategic planning and design of their<br />

enterprise networks. From wide, local, and metropolitan area networking, to remote access, to address<br />

management, to convergence, <strong>Verizon</strong> experts are prepared to assist customers in any of the following<br />

disciplines:<br />

• <strong>Network</strong> Architecture & Planning. <strong>Verizon</strong> <strong>Network</strong> Architecture and Planning services help<br />

enterprise customers closely align their technology initiatives with their business objectives. Utilizing<br />

a phased approach, <strong>Verizon</strong> engineers develop an architecture and technology roadmap to guide<br />

customers from legacy to next-generation networks in support of their business objectives. <strong>Verizon</strong><br />

engineers start by conducting a high-level assessment to gain an understanding of the current network.<br />

Next, through an interview process and review of customer planning documents, architectural goals are<br />

defined and prioritized. In the next phase, architecture alternatives are defined and evaluated, and a<br />

recommendation developed. Lastly, a transition plan to guide the customer through the migration is<br />

assembled. An executive briefing describing the process and results is provided to the customer.<br />

• <strong>Network</strong> Design. A comprehensive design should not be underestimated in any construction or<br />

development effort, whether it is the construction of a new building or the development of a new<br />

product. Enterprise networks are no different. To implement a scalable, reliable, robust network to<br />

meet business objectives and maximize return on investment, a formal network design is a must. It has<br />

been common in the past to pull together network designs without thorough requirements gathering,<br />

and almost as a result of technology selection, rather than a prerequisite, often at little or no cost.<br />

However, this lack of emphasis has resulted in networks that do not fulfill business requirements and<br />

do not meet expectations of technology executives.<br />

<strong>Verizon</strong> <strong>Network</strong> Design Services assists enterprise clients in developing detailed network<br />

specifications and implementation tactics, to serve as the basis for scalable, robust, and reliable<br />

network solutions. These specifications for the physical, logical, and operational infrastructure are<br />

developed with consideration of how the new technology will integrate into the existing network, and<br />

with an eye to ensuring that the design supports the architecture and technology roadmap. Maximizing<br />

the return on investment starts with a solid foundation in architecture, and is only possible with a<br />

comprehensive network design.<br />

• <strong>Network</strong> Assessment Services. <strong>Network</strong> Assessment services improves the return on IT investment<br />

by maximizing the efficiency of the network infrastructure, and planning for future growth in a logical<br />

and disciplined manner. Whether the assessment focuses on network inventory, performance,<br />

reliability, availability, or all of the above, <strong>Verizon</strong> engineers utilize proven methodologies and stateof-the-art<br />

tools to ensure a meticulous audit of the enterprise network according to the objectives<br />

identified at the onset of the engagement. The <strong>Network</strong> Assessment is often the starting point for a<br />

new technology implementation initiative, and ensures the accuracy of the planning baseline, such that<br />

new initiatives are built on a solid foundation. The focus of the network assessment typically includes<br />

any combination of the following areas:<br />

- WAN/ MAN/ LAN topologies<br />

- <strong>Network</strong> operating systems, gateways, protocols<br />

- General throughput/ capacity<br />

- Bottlenecks, problem area identification<br />

- <strong>Network</strong> management capabilities<br />

- Operations and Administration procedures
