TransNet Corporation was awarded a $1.85 million contract by a New Jersey regional high school district to upgrade the district network and telephony systems.
“The new telephony solution will employ the latest Voice-over-IP (”VoIP”) technology from Cisco Systems, Inc. This solution provides technological advancement in a sophisticated new system that costs less to operate than the one it replaces. The return on investment realized through immediate savings in operating costs was well received by district officials,”said TransNet President Steven J. Wilk. “Voice mail will now be available for all teaching staff, facilitating interaction among staff and parents. Automated outbound dialing will provide notification to the community about such matters as snow days, event cancellations, or the steps being taken to protect their students in any emergency. The current system for outbound dialing incurs costs with each usage. The new system is part of the overall VoIP solution and can be used without surcharge.”
The project will lower operating costs while increasing security and services for the district. What district? Who knows.
