Introducing the latest communication technologies for the modern world of work
Gigaset launches innovative multi-cell phone system for UK businesses
Gigaset, London, March 6th, 2012 – Gigaset, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of cordless phones, today announced the launch of their latest Gigaset Pro offering at CeBIT in Hannover, the N720 DECT IP multi-cell system for small and medium sized enterprises. The new system enables cordless calls from anywhere on the company’s business site and allows up to 20 DECT base stations to be connected to each other cordlessly and configured with ease, ensuring employees can be reached by mobile means anywhere within the office environment.
The system offers coverage for up to 100 users (extension numbers) and can handle up to 30 simultaneous calls. If a user is on the move while phoning, a base station automatically passes the call to the next one without the user noticing a thing. The N720 ensures that every base station has the intelligence to identify which of the adjacent stations is fully utilised and which has free availability and the call is passed to where there are free capacities.
Michael Anft, Product Manager at Gigaset, explained, “Coverage by DECT communication technology is as flexible as it is inexpensive. Our customers can make themselves independent of the mobile network as the overall solution is also flexible, since the N720 DECT IP can be connected seamlessly with an existing Gigaset telephone system and many other third party PBX’s. In conjunction with the Gigaset T300 und T500, auto provisioning ensures that the base stations automatically retrieve the necessary data from the telephone system as soon as they are connected to it.”
Installing the DECT stations is also simple for businesses, by merely attaching the model to the wall or ceiling of a room and connected by a LAN cable and you’re ready to go. The N720 DECT IP multi-cell system comes with Power over Ethernet (PoE), i.e. the stations can maintain a very low operating current from the data network and a special measuring kit helps in selecting the place to install each station for ease of use. Smaller office environments also don’t have to worry about lots of wires as separate cabling to the power supply isn’t required.
In addition, the model provides High Definition Sound Performance (HSDP), a technology that permits voice transmission in excellent quality and is of particular interest to corporate customers. Anft added, “All that’s needed are two phones that support this feature and an IP connection and you can ensure clearer clarity on your calls, which is vital during conference calls and important business discussions.”
Like all the products from the Gigaset Pro series, the N720 DECT IP multi-cell system is distinguished by high compatibility with other models across the range helping businesses to keep costs down and meet the requirements of their specific needs. Customers can choose from a wide range of Gigaset DECT handsets, for example, an elegant handset or rugged and robust model that is resistant to shocks and dirt. The Gigaset N720 DECT IP, like all Gigaset pro products, can be obtained from Gigaset Pro authorized resellers.
