2. System Overview
2.1 iPECS UCP Introduction
iPECS UCP is Ericsson-LG Enterprise’s Internet Protocol (IP) Enterprise Communications
Solution Unified Communication Platform designed to meet the telecommunication needs of the
small to medium sized business. iPECS UCP uses advanced packet voice and IP switching
technology, which is combined with a rich feature content, to set a new standard in Voice over IP
(VoIP) systems.
iPECS UCP consists of a family of intelligent modules, which are interconnected over an Ethernet
LAN, easing the installation process and eliminating the need for an expensive back plane. A
variety of modules are available including analog and digital network access gateways, which
connect to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), ISDN or public and private VoIP
networks. iPECS Ethernet switches (ES8G/ES8GP) provide the LAN connections for other
iPECS UCP modules in the same form factor as the standard iPECS UCP modules for a clean
consistent in-cabinet installation. The ES8GP incorporates Power over Ethernet (PoE) to support
“power-feed” to connected LIP Phones. LIP Phones provide the user simple access to the many
features and functions of the iPECS UCP.
The modules, which make up the iPECS, can be installed in a Main Cabinet. The cabinet can be
desk, 19” rack, or wall mounted, as best fits the user needs and equipment room. Each of the
system’s modules is powered from a PSU, which converts 100-240 VAC to 48 VDC. In lieu of the
cabinet installation, the modules can be shelf (bookend) mounted, in which case, each module is
separately powered from an AC/DC adapter, which converts 100-240 VAC to 48 DC for use by
the module.
iPECS supports a variety of iPECS LIP Phones Ericsson-LG Enterprise digital terminals, standard
VoIP phones (SIP and H.323 V3) and analog single line devices. With the LIP and LDP digital
Phones, commonly used features are activated by selection of a single button. Additionally, most
functions can be accessed from any telephone by dialing specific codes. For LIP and LDP digital
Phone users, these “dial codes” may be assigned to Flexible buttons for easy access. In addition
to the LIP Phones, optional LIP DSS Consoles are available to expand the number of Flexible
buttons available to the user.
iPECS UCP provides an environment rich in features beyond today’s traditional circuit switched
telephone systems. In addition to a fully featured voice intercom, the iPECS UCP incorporates
enhanced messaging, basic Auto Attendant/Voice Mail, Least Cost Routing, and Automatic Call
Distribution, as well as Web based Admin, and VoIP network interface. iPECS UCP incorporates
an interface to the iPECS Applications Service Provider, a TAPI 3.1 TSP/MSP. The Application
Service Provider links the iPECS UCP to advanced Computer-Telephony iPECS and third party
applications. In addition to the iPECS Auto Attendant/Voice Mail and iPECS Unified Messaging
applications developed by Ericsson-LG Enterprise, third party TAPI 3.1 application support is
