Good news for small and medium-sized businesses. Today, the Dallas-based Business Communication Systems division of Samsung introduced a new line of VoIP and digital keysets designed for these types of organizations. Specifically, the company introduced the ITP-5100 series of VoIP keysets which will offer SMBs a set of options from entry-level setups to large color displays; and the DS-5000 digital keysets.
The OfficeServ ITP-5107S, ITP-5121D and ITP-5112L use standard IP protocols and are compatible with all of Samsung's converged and IP-enabled OfficeServ systems. The ITP-5107S offers a seven-button, entry-level option; the ITP-5121D offers a 21-button keyset with a navigation key for easier feature use; and the ITP-5112L offers a large, color TFT-LCD display, built-in phone book, calculator and text messaging.
The VoIP keysets seem to be a good choice for business office applications, remote office applications, such as a home office, remote agents, part-time employees, as well as satellite offices. They enable users to have the same access and functions at any location as they do at the main office. Administrators are also able to add more of the keysets to a new or existing LAN in a snap. No end-user license is required for the ITP-5100 series.
The DS-5000 series of digital keysets include the DS-5007S, the DS-5014D and the DS-5021D; giving customers options on what phone size is better suited for each individual user. All of these keysets are equipped with a number of programmable function buttons, three soft keys with a scroll button to guide users to variable call status options, a built-in speakerphone, message waiting lamp and caller ID display.
"For Samsung and its dealers, the new keyset families open new market opportunities by offering a multiplicity of options for more customers, while the end-user reaps the benefits of the advanced features and better performance," said Steve Gobeli, vice president of Samsung Telecommunications America, Business Communication Systems Division in a statement.
The move added mobility to Avaya's (News - Alert) IP-based products and it would surely expand Avaya's brand into the rapidly growing Asian Pacific market. Both companies not only integrated their technologies, but they now jointly develop and market a new suite of voice and video products and services. The new partnership combined Avaya's IP telephony expertise with Samsung's established position in the mobile telecom industry.
