Kansas City School District Moves to IP Convergence with Siemens

The Kansas City, Missouri School District has awarded a $15.8 million contract to the Enterprise Networks division of Siemens ICN to expand the existing communications infrastructure of 45 schools and add a telephone to every classroom. Siemens will install IP gateways, cabling and data infrastructure equipment based on its HiPath platform. The deployment includes 45 HiPath 3000 SMGs (survivable media gateways), which support conventional circuit-switched telephone services as a fall-back from their IP functionality.
