Internet networking form Cisco Systems and the Housing Bank for Trade and Finance in Jordan are implementation of the first phase of a project to connect the Bank's 100 branches via an Ethernet router-based backbone. This project was implemented by UBM.com, Cisco's Channel Partner in Jordan, which will begin implementing the second phase in August 2002.
In migrating to new network architecture, the Housing Bank will be able to provide new services to customers. It will also enable the bank to adopt time sensitive and mission critical applications, such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and multi-service networks with Voice and Video over IP (VoIP). — (menareport.com)
