After consultation, Icomm networks were awarded the installation and provided a quotation for a Toshiba DK280 30 user system with integrated voicemail as well as 72 data points coupled with Cisco voice gateway switches.

Icomm Network Services Ltd provided a 100mbps laser link between the two buildings and seamlessly integrated the voice data and internet access between the two buildings, allowing transferring of calls and data, treating the second building as an extension of the first.
