Avaya and Multi-Tech Bring New Capabilities to Sporting World's Largest Voice and Data Network
Dateline: Jun 06, 2006
Avaya is the Official Convergence Communication provider for the FIFA World Cup 2006™, which is the largest sporting event on the planet. The Avaya network for FIFA connects 12 host stadia, the media centers in all stadia and FIFA headquarters in Berlin. With an estimated 45,000 network connections, 30,000 network devices and support for more than 15 terabytes of data, it is the largest converged communication network ever built for a sporting event.
To raise the bar and extend the capabilities available to FIFA for the 2006 games, Avaya turned to members of its DeveloperConnection program, an initiative to promote the development, compliance testing and co-marketing of innovative third-party systems and applications that interoperate with standards-based Avaya technology. Multi-Tech is providing MultiVOIP™ gateways that allow FIFA to route fax communications over its converged voice and network and eliminate interoffice long distance toll charges among World Cup venues. Acting as IP to analog converters, the gateways expand deployment options by allowing FIFA to use a fax machine anywhere there is an Internet connection, without the need for an analog phone line.
Players, coaches, volunteers and fans alike will benefit from the Avaya network, which will be instrumental in player and journalist accreditation, results reporting, material tracking, accommodation confirmations, transportation, ticketing and other critical functions.
