Zycko South Africa, the official distributor of Polycom voice communication solutions, has introduced Polycom's 'Wireless-Office-in-a-Box' solution, enabling small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) to deploy wireless voice more cost-effectively than ever before.
The Wireless-Office-in-a-Box consists of three KIRK 2010 digital enhanced cordless telecommunications (DECT) handsets and a KIRK Wireless Server (KWS) 300. By offering this affordable, easy-to-deploy wireless solution, Polycom is helping its SME customers realise the benefits of enterprise-grade wireless voice without any costly overhead or complex management and administration requirements.
Says Fiona Mclean-Banks, Polycom Business Development Manager at Zycko: “With much of business communication taking place over the phone and the decreasing price of handsets, the demand for telephony solutions in businesses of all sizes is increasing consistently. The KIRK Wireless-Office-in-a-Box solution makes the quality and convenience of wireless telephony accessible and affordable to the SME market.”
The newly launched KIRK 2010 handset is a sleek, lightweight, easy-to-use, handset that offers 12 hours of talk time and 150 hours of standby time. The newest member of Polycom's KIRK handset portfolio, the 2010, enables workers in SMEs to move about their office while always remaining in touch with customers and colleagues. It offers hands-free speakerphone, caller ID, call timer, a 40-name phonebook, as well as a headset jack and a choice of 13 menu languages.
The Wireless-Office-in-a-Box also includes the KWS 300, a SIP-based wireless telephony system that is ideal for smaller sized businesses. The KWS 300 is a single-cell system that can support up to 12 handsets and four simultaneous calls. A total of six KIRK repeaters can be added to extend the coverage area.
"We are committed to meet the wireless telephony needs for customers of all sizes, and we understand that one size does not fit all," said Sten Dyrmose, general manager for Polycom's DECT business unit. "In the SME space, we identified the need for a cost-effective system that is easy to deploy, competitively priced and designed to fit the needs of a smaller-sized business. The Wireless Office in a Box can be tailored to each customer, so they aren't paying for more than they want or need."
Interoperability
KIRK Wireless Servers are fully interoperable with the full portfolio of KIRK wireless telephones. Additionally, KIRK Wireless Servers interoperate with a number of IP PBX systems, including BroadSoft, Cisco, Digium, Innovaphone, Nortel, and most recently, Objectworld.
The KIRK Wireless-Office-in-a-Box systems are now available in South Africa.
