Embedded in the Cisco Intelligent Network, the Cisco Unified Communications applications are network-aware in that they seek out the network services they require for example, an IP phone retrieving the proper settings for power or quality of service (QoS). At first glance, it seems that without the PSTN infrastructure the cost justifications for VoIP are simple. While PSTN usage can be reduced considerably, it cannot be eliminated totally since the PSTN must handle call overflow and any calls not destined to the remote sites. Also, the extra voice over IP traffic may cause an increase in WAN bandwidth. The cost for this extra capacity will have to be subtracted from the savings achieved from reduced PSTN usage. The step-by-step cost justification example below can be used as a model for other network integration projects.
