Description

The objective of this RFIQ is to procure a standalone SIP Softphone Client (User Agent) application. The proposed solution must function strictly as a client-side endpoint that registers directly to CBC/Radio-Canada’s existing local internal SIP server (Avaya CS1000/Aura infrastructure) and Comrex broadcast codecs via standard SIP. Important: This request is for software endpoints only. CBC/Radio-Canada is not seeking a Cloud PBX, Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS), or any solution that requires replacing the current telephony system or routing media through a third-party cloud.
