TeleDynamics Think Tank

As technology continues to advance, networks within offices, hotels, education spaces and other verticals have grown more complex. Phones, computers, IoT devices, smart technology and more can all be simultaneously running across a deployment’s Local Area Network (LAN). This can lead to issues with security, network organization, and scalability.

As a result of these roadblocks, Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) have become an increasingly popular feature that can help partition physical networks into virtually manageable ones. Within this blog post, we’ll give you an introduction to building VLANs with Grandstream’s GWN layer 2+ switches.

The arrival of ChatGPT has propelled AI into the mainstream. It is a tool that allows anyone to use AI technology and has thus dramatically increased broad exposure to and understanding of artificial intelligence.

Of course, AI is about much more than simply writing prompts and examining text responses. For unified communications (UC) systems, AI is poised to add massive value to an already innovative and versatile set of applications, ultimately launching UC into a realm of new capabilities.

This article examines how AI is expected to shape numerous aspects of UC technology and related systems in the near and not-so-near future.

Yealink, a leading global provider of unified communications and collaboration solutions, has recently faced some scrutiny due to alleged security concerns about its products and services. 

These claims suggest that Yealink products are vulnerable to attacks and may be used by third parties to achieve unauthorized surveillance. As a responsible and thorough investigator of the products we deliver, it is our duty to assess the veracity of these accusations and provide a balanced perspective on the matter.

In this article, we examine the evidence at hand and explore the rigorous security measures implemented by Yealink to ensure the safety and privacy of its users. We hope this helps you understand the issue and make informed decisions about Yealink's products with renewed confidence.
