Asterisk Business Edition™

Why Asterisk Business Edition?

Asterisk is a complete telecommunications platform and represents a highly valuable piece of software for a number of reasons:

• Extreme cost reduction
• Control and customization
• Flexible dial plan
• Rich, broad feature base

Easy to Install, Configure and Use

Asterisk Business Edition includes a supported rPath™ Linux distribution with an enhanced installer, making Asterisk even easier to install, configure, and use.

To enhance customer interactivity with an Asterisk PBX, Asterisk Business Edition is integrated with the LumenVox™ Speech Recognition Engine and Cepstral™ Text-to-Speech. A trial version of the Cepstral product is included, and one free port of Lumenvox Lite is also available upon request to Asterisk Business Edition customers. The purchase of a separate license is necessary to activate additional functionality of these products.

Performance, Interoperability and Reliability

Digium's comprehensive test program ensures Asterisk Business Edition's reliability, performance, and interoperability with key hardware, software, and protocols. Digium hardware cards are tested for full compatibility with Asterisk Business Edition, as are several select models of servers, VoIP, and TDM devices. All major software features in Asterisk Business Edition are thoroughly tested for functionality and reliability. Test bed systems are also subjected to extreme stress conditions using Empirix™ test equipment to simulate hundreds of thousands of calls in various real-world combinations and configurations.

As a result, customers can rely on their combination of proven Asterisk software and Digium hardware to work together to provide a feature-rich PBX or VoIP system.
