SIP-CCME cooperation in multimedia VoIP network

VoIP is a fast-developing technology which allows making telephone calls using a data network like the Internet. VoIP converts the voice signal from the telephone into a digital signal that travels over the Internet and then converts it back at the other end so that speaking to anyone with a regular phone number is possible. VoIP may also enable the direct calls from a computer with the use of a conventional telephone or a microphone. Some services using VoIP may only allow you to call other people using the same VoIP service, but others may allow you to call anyone who has a telephone number. First condition is a broadband Internet connection for VoIP technology to work. There are two major advantages of VOIP: lower cost and increased functionality. In the paper the integration of two networks, one with a CCME based installation and the other with a full Asterisk/SIP voicemail deployment is presented. The goal was to allow dialing between VoIP's telephony from different networks and evaluate a quality of connection with the use of certain codecs.
