  1. Cloud Connector Overview Presenter:

  2. Agenda Cloud PBX, so many choices Hybrid Voice Overview Cloud PBX with On Premises PSTN via Cloud Connector

  3. Skype for Business PSTN Calling Options Online Hybrid On Premises Cloud PBX in Office 365 PSTN services provided by Microsoft End-user features & customer PSTN services integrated on- premises Users hosted in Office 365 Customer PSTN services integrated on- premises

  4. Why Hybrid PSTN Options: PSTN Calling option from Microsoft is currently unavailable in your market Customer just signed a 5y Telco contract Customer has custom services from PBX entrenched in their work flow

  5. Cloud PBX: so many choices

  6. Cloud PBX: So many choices With PSTN Calling Service Users homed online, PSTN service provided by Microsoft No on premises Skype For Business infrastructure required Available in the US only With On Premises PSTN Connectivity via Cloud Connector Edition Users homed online, PSTN service provided by 3rd party Deployment of Cloud Connector on premises required , cannot coexist with on premises deployment of Skype For Business/Lync Servers Available worldwide With On Premises PSTN Connectivity with an existing deployment Some users homed online, some users can be homed on premises, PSTN service provided by 3rd party Maintaining of Skype For Business or Lync 2013 deployment required Available worldwide

  7. Decision Tree Moving to the Cloud is the strategic goal For US customers consider PSTN Calling with porting their existing numbers first Cloud Connector for companies outside the US or when customer wants to keep their existing SIP trunk On Premises PSTN connectivity with an existing deployment when customer has some unique functionality which not offered in the Cloud (combination) Do not forget about Dial in conferencing and Express Route

  8. Features comparison Cloud PBX with on premises PSTN Calling with an existing pool Cloud PBX with on premises PSTN Calling via Cloud Connector Skype For Business On-Premises Cloud PBX with PSTN Calling Skype For Business Capabilities Basic Call Features (hold/retrieve, transfer, forwarding) Voice mail Exchange UM Cloud PBX Voice Mail (Exchange Online Required) Cloud PBX Voice Mail (Exchange Online Required) Cloud PBX Voice Mail (Exchange Online Required) Users should be in the same environment Delegation, team call Cloud Auto Attendant, available in CY16 Cloud Auto Attendant, available in CY16 Cloud Auto Attendant, available in CY16 Auto Attendant Hunt Groups Call Park Service (CPS) Voice Resiliency Branch Survivability Location Based Routing Call Admission Control Option to use own SIP trunk Call via Work Private line 911 Media Bypass IP phones Optimized for Skype For Business IP phones Compatible with Skype For Business Analog devices Common area phone Planned for CY16 Planned for CY16 Planned for CY16 Secured by SLA Only via local pool Static 911 only Static 911 only Static 911 only Only Polycom VVX supported, Yealink is coming Only Polycom VVX supported, Yealink is coming Only Polycom VVX supported, Yealink is coming Using on premises deployment Can be integrated and via local GW Using on premises deployment

  11. Cloud PBX with On Premises PSTN connectivity via Cloud Connector

  12. What is Cloud Connector? Set of VMs (4) running a mashup of custom pieces of SFB on Windows Server 2012R2 Data Center Edition Enables SFBO users to use onPrem PSTN resources Runs on Windows Server 2012R2 Data Center Edition Hypervisor, customer supplied server

  13. Cloud Connector Architecture Four VMs on One Physical Host Machine, placed in Perimeter Network During deployment creates own forest No dependency on internal AD Domain Dial Plan Assigned online based on user location Option to restrict international calling (online) External SIP DNS points at online Skype For Business No co-existence with on premises deployment of Skype For Business Media traffic always flows via Mediation server Users can be created on premises and synchronized online using DirSync or created in Azure AD John SfB Online user in Internet PSTN PSTN GW 1 Mediation Edge PSTN GW 2 Domain Controller for Cloud Connector Storage SfB Online Infrastructure Dave SfB Online user in internal network Domain Controller Cloud Connector Sip Traffic Media Traffic

  14. High Availability Up to 4 instances per site Calls are distributed in random order between Cloud Connectors in one pool Capacity planning calculation should consider ability to handle load if one or several Cloud Connectors will go down, based on SLA: N+1 boxes support 500*N concurrent calls with 99.8% availability; N+2 boxes support 500*N concurrent calls with 99.9% availability; John SfB Online user in Internet Mediation Edge PSTN PSTN GW1 Domain Controller for Cloud Connector Storage Dave SfB Online user in internal network PSTN GW2 Cloud Connector 1 SfB Online Infrastructure PSTN GW3 Mediation Edge Domain Controller Korneel SfB Online user in Internet Domain Controller for Cloud Connector Storage Sip Traffic Media Traffic Cloud Connector 2

  15. Multi Site Scenario PSTN Site to define pool level GW affinity: Cloud Connector Pool + PSTN gateways connected to the pool = PSTN Site New-CSHybridPSTNSite Tenant <TenantGUID> -Identity <PSTNSiteName> -EdgeFQDN <PSTNEdgeFQDN> Mediation Edge PSTN PSTN GW1 John SfB Online user in Internet, assigned to PSTN Site 1 DC CMS PSTN GW2 Mediation Edge Domain Controller PSTN Site 1 DC Seattle CMS User must be assigned to a specific PSTN Site Set-CSUserPSTNSettings HybridPSTNSite <name> - AllowInternationalDialing <BooleanValue> SfB Online Infrastructure Mediation Edge PSTN PSTN GW1 DC CMS Korneel SfB Online user in Internet, assigned to PSTN Site 2 PSTN GW2 No disaster Recovery between sites Mediation Edge Domain Controller PSTN Site 2 DC CMS Amsterdam Sip Traffic Media Traffic

  16. Gateway Affinity M:N Mediation to Gateways supported GW chosen on round-robin order, can set preferred GW If gateway cannot accept the call, it will be redetected to another gateway Minimum 2 gateways recommended GWs have to be able to handle full amount of calls generated by Cloud Connector if one or more GW goes down, based on SLA John SfB Online user in Internet Mediation Edge PSTN PSTN GW1 Domain Controller for Cloud Connector Storage Dave SfB Online user in internal network PSTN GW2 Cloud Connector 1 SfB Online Infrastructure PSTN GW3 Mediation Edge Domain Controller Korneel SfB Online user in Internet Domain Controller for Cloud Connector Storage Cloud Connector 2

  17. Cloud Connector Media Flow: outbound call from internal user to PSTN Dave places a call to an external PSTN user SIP Traffic routes to SfB Online SfB Online makes RNL of the number Call routed to Edge server (SIP and Media flow via Online Edge first and then via on premises Edge) If route exists, Edge relays the traffic to Media component in DMZ) Media component sends the traffic to PSTN gateway Media ports can be limited John SfB Online user in Internet PSTN GW Mediation Edge PSTN Domain Controller for Cloud Connector Storage Domain Controller SfB Online Infrastructure Dave SfB Online user in internal network Cloud Connector v2

  18. Cloud Connector Media Flow: inbound call to internal user from PSTN PSTN GW receives call for user Dave Traffic routes to Mediation server Mediation server sends traffic to Edge and then it goes to SfB Online SfB Online makes RNL of the number Call routed to Dave Media ports can be limited John SfB Online user in Internet PSTN GW Mediation Edge PSTN Domain Controller for Cloud Connector Storage Domain Controller SfB Online Infrastructure Dave SfB Online user in internal network Cloud Connector v2
