The i2004 Internet Telephone - Introduction
Internet Protocol (IP) telephony is the next generation of telecommunication
services that integrates voice and data capabilities to enhance everyday
communications and increase productivity. IP telephony takes advantage of new
high-bandwidth central office technologies to provide any service, anywhere, at
anytime – instantly.
Nortel Networks has developed the i2004 Internet Telephone to work on your
corporate local area network (LAN) to deliver voice over IP (VoIP) services. The
i2004 Internet Telephone works in concert with your existing Centrex- or PBX-
based telephone system (see Figure 1).

The i2004 Internet Telephone and the Terminal Proxy Server (TPS) software are
built on H.323 standards established by the International Telecommunications
Union for multimedia communications over packet-based networks such as a
corporate LAN. This means your phone will work in harmony with other IP-based
software and hardware.
The design of the i2004 Internet Telephone includes one-button access to
features like speakerphone and voicemail, and it supports the unique
requirements of various users. Additional features and functionality of the i2004
Internet Telephone include its display screen, softkeys and multiple line
appearances.
