HD Telephony Article Mentions FreeSWITCH
FYI,
Some of you are familiar with ZDNet's Dave Greenfield. He has a new blog post discussing HD Telephony. Evidently HD Telephony is becoming a big buzzword. We need everyone in the FreeSWITCH community to spread the word that not only is FreeSWITCH capable of HD voice, it does it as well or better than anyone on the planet. If you think that last statement is hyperbole then google around for HD telephony or HD VoIP and see what your options are. Look at the expensive companies - Cisco, Avaya, Nortel, etc. - and see what they offer for HD voice. Compare that to using FreeSWITCH with CELT, Speex WB, or Polycom's Siren codecs, not to mention Skype integration with mod_skypiax. For zero cost software you can get HD voice. Of course, you'll still need some hardware, but who wants to pay for hardware and software both, especially when the paid-for software can't even keep up with FreeSWITCH?
If you have used or are using HD voice with FreeSWITCH then please go put a nice comment on Dave's blog. Also, if you know someone going to the HD VoIP Summit in New York on May 21 then definitely put a bug in their ear about FreeSWITCH + HD codecs being a fantastically low barrier-to-entry for HD voice in the enterprise.
