We have been hearing from LAN certification and installtion companies that 30 percent or more of enterprise or small/medium business local area networks are not able to support VoIP services without modification. Others say their own experience is that half of all LANs need rework or upgrades before VoIP will work. It might well be worse. As many as 90 percent of local area networks are not completely prepared to support VoIP services, says Lawrence Trifiletti, NetStar-1 executive.
The other thing: "More than 70 percent of enterprises do not make baseline performance measurements before they deploy business VoIP", says Scott Safe, Network Physics VP. That's a problem because "data volume grows 40 to 50 percent a year," Safe says. So a network that might have been in tolerance a year ago might well not be in that state today.
