A telephone switching device (10) according to the present disclosure includes a storage unit (11) that stores a registration table (11a) registering a plurality of personal telephone numbers for each telephone terminal, an acquisition unit (12) that acquires an authentication result of a user with respect to the telephone terminal, a registration unit (13) that registers the telephone terminal and a personal telephone number of the user in the registration table (11a) in association with each other, according to the acquired authentication result, and a control unit (14) that controls incoming/outgoing calls using the personal telephone number of the user in the telephone terminal, based on the registered registration table (11a).

A key telephone system includes a terminal and a primary device. The primary device transmits a command for transition into a power-saving state to the terminal, together with a power-saving duration time datum and/or a power-saving deactivating time datum, when the time reaches a power-saving state transition time. The terminal specifies the power-saving duration time and/or the power-saving deactivating time in the timekeeper means, and halts the communication means for communicating with the primary device at the time of receiving the command for transition into the power-saving state from the primary device, and activates the communication means being halted at a time when the timekeeper means has measured the lapse of the power-saving duration time and/or the power-saving deactivating time.

The present invention comprises systems and methods for controlling a connection between and IT infrastructure and a telephony network. In one embodiment, the present invention allows such control through the use of application services adapted for use with a telephony network, a telephony application server that exposes the telephony network to the application services, and a service mediation platform controlling the interaction between the application services and the telephony application server. The service mediation server may comprise a user profile manager for handling the user profiles of a subscriber database, a service level agreement manager for invoking a set of application services, and a resource policy enforcement manager for managing the resources of the telephony network.

A packet-centric wireless system includes: a wireless base station communicating via a transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP) to a first data network; one or more host workstations communicating via TCP/IP to the first data network; one or more subscriber customer premise equipment (CPE) stations coupled with the wireless base station over a shared bandwidth via TCP/IP over a wireless medium; and one or more subscriber workstations coupled via TCP/IP to each of the subscriber CPE stations over a second network. The system can allocate shared bandwidth among the subscriber CPE stations to optimize end-user quality of service (QoS). The first data network includes at least one of: a wireline network; a wireless network; a local area network (LAN); and a wide area network (WAN). The second network includes at least one of: a wireline network; a wireless network; a local area network (LAN); and. a wide area network (WAN).
