PSTN. Public Switched Telephone Network. The global telecommunications network owned and operated by Tier 1 Telecommunications carriers worldwide who may sell or lease voice traffic over it to Tier 2 & 3 telecommunications carriers such as TELIPHONE and IPHONIA.
PSTN. The PSTN is the global network of circuit-switched telephone systems. Originally a network of fixed-line analog systems, the PSTN is now almost entirely digital in its core. All links are interconnected by switching centers which allows any telephone in the world to communicate with any other. Jive manages relationships with several different providers that deliver PSTN connectivity directly to the Cloud, including: Level3, Verizon, XO Communications, 360 Networks, and many others. These Tier 1 providers give Jive broad penetration in the US market, with over 98% of the country eligible for Jive Hosted VoIP. CLIENT-SIDE LAN Jive’s hosted services have the following minimal basic network and installation requirements to ensure optimal call quality and system uptime.

CLIENT-SIDE LAN Jive’s hosted services have the following minimal basic network and installation requirements to ensure optimal call quality and system uptime. ROUTERS AND SWITCHES All on-premises hardware are network devices which require an enterprise-grade router to function optimally. Jive can recommend router hardware as needed. Power over Ethernet (XxX) switches are highly recommended (though not required) to support Jive service. XxX switches eliminate the need for individual power adapters for each endpoint and centralize power redundancy. PROTOCOLS The following protocols should be installed and available on the network router: • DHCP. Devices should receive an internal IP address assignment via DHCP. • NAT. All NAT connections must be left open for at least 60 seconds. • Public IP Addresses. Some Jive HD Video devices may require public IPs to function properly. QUALITY OF SERVICE (QOS) QoS protocols provide the means to guarantee certain resource levels to specific types of network traffic. QoS is particularly important in voice and video implementations. Jive Hosted Services utilize several QoS methods to ensure quality and produce a stable, scalable network JIVE CLOUD VS. THE CLOSET The only real difference between hosted and premises-based solutions is how and where your calls are routed, managed, and stored. The diagram on the left is a typical premises-based deployment, featuring a closet filled with PBX, switches and routers, and a large voice circuit. On the right is a typical Jive deployment. Only a single router is required - and it may already be in place. Jive Cloud takes the solution out of the closet and brings it into the cloud.
PSTN. Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is the aggregate of the world's circuit-switched telephone networks that are operated by national, regional, or local telephony operators, providing infrastructure and services for public telecommunication. The PSTN consists of telephone lines, fiber optic cables, microwave transmission links, cellular networks, communications satellites, and undersea telephone cables, all interconnected by switching centers, thus allowing most telephones to communicate with each other. Originally a network of fixed-line analog telephone systems, the PSTN is now almost entirely digital in its core network and includes mobile and other networks, as well as fixed telephones. The Modern Edge bundles include 10,000 minutes and allows optional additional PSTN in bundles of 10,000 minutes per month aggregated for the organization across all of it’s users.
