Embodiment Construction

[0027] Figure 1 is a system diagram of a call center connected to a telecommunications network using IPNT to COST conversion according to the prior art. As briefly described for the background section, various prior art telecommunications networks utilize network bridging techniques to allow IPNT and COST incoming calls to work in call centers in parallel. In current systems, as also described above, call centers have implemented various implementations to convert IPNT calls to COST calls, and vice versa, to convert COST calls to IPNT calls. Figure 1 shows one such current prior art system.

[0028] In FIG. 1 , a telecommunications network 11 includes a public switched telephone network (PSTN) 13 , the Internet 15 , and a call center 17 . PSTN network 13 may be a private telephone network rather than a public network, and Internet 15 may be another public data network or a private data network, as is well known in the art.

[0029] In this basic prior art example, call cente...

Abstract

An integrated router (IR) in a call center monitors and controls both a telephony switch receiving and forwarding connection-oriented, switched telephony (COST) calls and a Data Network Telephony (DNT) processor receiving and forwarding DNT calls. The one IR consults a common data repository storing status of agents on both types of calls, and routes all calls according to a single set of rules, which can take a variety of forms. In one embodiment telephones at agent stations are adapted to handle both OST and DNT calls.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of telephony, and more particularly to methods for making, in a call center, web-based, connection-oriented, switched telephony (COST) and data network telephony (DNT) calls, such as Internet Protocol telephony (IPNT) A method and device for call provider routing integration are provided. Background technique [0002] In the field of telephony, many improvements have been made in technology over the years to more effectively utilize telephony in the context of a mainframe call center. Most of these improvements involve the integration of telephone and switching systems in call centers with computer hardware and software adapted, among other features, to enable better routing of telephone calls, faster Send phone calls and their related information, and be able to provide better quality service to satisfy customers. Such computer-enhanced telephony is known in the field as computer-telephony integration (CTI)...
