Editorial Reviews

Review

"IP Telephony is a major growth area for telecom in the next 3 years - it is a service riding over existing, readily available transport technologies, so new companies can enter the market without efforts by the telcos to make the technology a success (unlike, say, DSL). IP Telephony is a true disruptive technology that if ignored by the incumbents, will grow to overwhelm them. This book takes the necessary step of explaining technology in terms of business needs. Camp's excellent proposal is always focused on why the reader should care about a particular technology, and what benefit the reader can gain from it." - Steven Shepard, Series Advisor


Product Description

With this guide you can find out if the Internet telephony is for you, if so, how? Focuses on why the reader should care about a particular technology. Softcover.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, February 13, 2003
By Scottie Ray (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews
Camp undertakes the challenge of blending technologically difficult concepts with the business drivers and impacts that organizations face VoIP/IPT. The book is a good resource for those who don't have the desire, need or time to read the voluminous amount of information published in various standards & RFCs. It simplifies the concepts, describes the "whats" and the "whys", and it gives the reader a solid foundation on which to communicate within the arena of VoIP and IPT.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, yet succinct coverage of IP Telephony, December 27, 2002
By Mark Fei (Castle Rock, CO United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Are you a professional (engineer, manager, director, account executive) who needs to understand the salient issues surrounding IP Telephony quickly? If so, Ken Camp's new book is for you. I've been studying this topic for several years and never before have I come across a volume that is so succinct and approachable, and yet complete in its coverage of this much discussed technology arena. Are you a scientist or software developer who needs a book that covers every last bit of technical minutae, right down to the definition of every bit's function according to every published standard? If so, go get a copy of the standards. This book is for people who need to quickly understand the relevant aspects of IP Telephony and make sound business and technical decisions; if that includes you then you can't do better than Camp's latest work.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Practical, Down-to-Earth Treatment of a Complex Subject, December 18, 2002
By Mitchell S. Moore "m.moore@hill.com" (New York, New York, United States) - See all my reviews
Ken Camp's "IP Telephony Demystified" is a valuable resource for anyone comtemplating the deployment of an IP telephony infrastructure. The introductory material in the beginning prepares the reader for discussion of more complex topics to come. Chapters 4, 6 and 7 deal with the details of the technologies involved in an IP telephony architecture. They are written in an easy-to-understand fashion and offer meaningful comparisons among competing IP telephony standards. Whereas most treatments of this subject focus almost exclusively on the technical details, Mr. Camp's approach places equal emphasis on the business aspects of IP telephony implementation. Chapter 5 offers a particularly honest discussion of the potential benefits of IP telephony in a number of business settings. To summarize, whether you're on the technical side trying to make sense of the myriad of details that comprise IP telephony or on the non-technical side trying to make the best business decisions possible for your organization, there's something in this book for you.
