Recognizing the surging demand from consumers and businesses for a high value communication experience, HD voice is the next critical offering in IP communications across all IP communication devices, wireless and wireline service providers, Internet Service Providers, equipment manufacturers (mobile and telco), application developers and enterprise software developers.

HD voice gives a more ‘life-like’ communications experience that provides crispness, clarity and better understanding compared to standard Internet Telephony, there's no interest in returning to standard telephony. Similarly, people are familiar with the benefits of HD video, thanks to HDTV and Blu-ray, and today it's pervasive.

Mostly driven by this demand and the current economic downturn, the HD voice market is expected to grow to more than $3 billion a year, offering a superior communication experience like no other. HD voice offers greater intelligibility, comfort and improved end-user experience without the audio fatigue that conference and telephone calls suffer from today.

However, a number of technical issues must be overcome in order to achieve a truly consistent HD voice sound, such as:

• What is actually required for HD voice?
• How do you deal with inherent issues of IP networks?
• How do you choose a HD voice codec?
• Plus, a case study in HD voice deployment from CommuniGate Systems.

Join this free webinar, sponsored by Global IP Solutions, to discuss HD voice issues relevant to enterprises, equipment manufacturers, application and enterprise software developers and service providers.
