The Internet2 Voice over IP (VoIP) Working Group is launching an initiative to ensure the survivability of university and government voice networks in the event that the circuit-switched public network goes down. The VoIP disaster recovery project will use the Internet2’s Abilene network to provide a resilient and distributed IP-based disaster recovery alternative to the PSTN’s traditional PBX and switched network architecture. The cooperative initiative is being led by BroadSoft, Georgetown University, Internet2, and Paetec with participating member institutions including Catholic University, Harvard, University of Pennsylvania, and Texas A&M.
