Imagine a world where you can communicate with the same ease and reliability of a face to face conversation across the country or across the globe. It is a world where you can communicate without restrictions, anytime, anywhere by voice, data, or video with whatever communications appliance you prefer. You can share information, collaborate, and communicate in a rich new multimedia experience using an integrated network more intelligent and more intuitive yet dramatically simpler to use. Its a world where you have control.

This is Nortel vision for the future of communications. This is the transformed network and the future is here now.
