About This Manual


In 1990, a consortium of PC telephony leaders, including Natural MicroSystems and seven other companies, established an industry standard telephony bus. The Multi-Vendor Integration Protocol (MVIP) bus is the most widely adopted bus in the PC telephony industry and continues to evolve.

MVIP provides a flexible and uniform way of moving telephony service components into a standard computer chassis. MVIP applications include voice processing, fax, speech recognition, telephone call switching and call processing, audio conferencing, data communications, and numerous telephony interfaces.

Getting Started With MVIP Switching is intended for developers who want to write applications with MVIP switching.
