In today’s fast-paced business world, every minute counts. It can be time-consuming to schedule telephone conference meetings, book meeting rooms equipped with conference phones, and wait for everyone to arrive before beginning. Instead of having the participants come to a meeting, with Yealink’s CP930W conference phone, you can bring the meeting to the participants!

Imagine going to the procurement department, or to the sales department, to meet with colleagues there and bringing your CP930W conference phone with you. Free of wires, you can place it anywhere within your DECT coverage and begin a meeting. You could even make the warehouse an impromptu telephone conference meeting room.

The U.S. mobile worker population will grow steadily to 105.4 million in 2020, according to a forecast from International Data Corporation (IDC). By the end of the forecast period, IDC expects mobile workers to account for 72% of the total U.S. workforce.

If your communications infrastructure is not set up to handle the needs of mobile workers, your business could be missing out on gains in productivity and employee loyalty. Since adequately equipped mobile workers can do their job anywhere, they can perform on the go without having to wait until they get back to their desk to implement certain tasks. A study conducted by Staples found that 76% of telecommuters are more willing to put in extra time on work and report being more loyal to their company since telecommuting.

In a competitive and fast-changing market, telephony solutions for any business must offer flexibility, the ability to scale, and the capability to adapt and expand to meet the needs of the client without breaking the bank. This is especially true of small to medium-sized businesses that don’t have the luxury of spending large sums of money for their communications system.

This combination of mobility and quality make it ideal for companies whose employees need to roam within the workplace like hospitals, manufacturing plants, department stores or universities, to name a few.

The new line is composed of the VDP650 base station, the VDP651 wireless handset, the VDP658 wireless desk phone, and the VSP605 repeater. When employed together in a total wireless voice solution, these devices can fulfill the needs of almost any SMB.

Sangoma offers an ideal solution for the mobile employee in its new DC201 DECT Base + Handset system. This is a package that includes a DB20 DECT base station with a single D10 handset.

In many workspaces, internal mobility is vital.  This is especially true of businesses that have extensive facilities such as warehouses, factories, hotels, schools, or even university campuses where employees are required to physically move from place to place to get their jobs done. In these kinds of enterprises,  professionals must be reachable no matter where they are on campus.

Grandstream’s DP750 DECT VoIP base station enables this type of mobile connectivity by combining two reliable technologies: DECT and VoIP. This base station delivers wireless coverage of up to 300 meters outdoors and 50 meters indoors for up to five DP720 DECT handsets, allowing five concurrent calls while supporting up to ten SIP accounts.

For organizations that need to cover an even greater surface area, Grandstream has launched the DP760 long-range wideband DECT repeater for extending the coverage area of the DP750 base station.
