7940 Ip Phone
The 7940 IP Phone is a modern and reliable phone system that has been designed specifically for working environments. Developed by Cisco Systems who are renowned for their innovative communication systems, the 7940 IP Phone is the perfect choice of phone for the office. The Cisco 7940 IP Phone has been specially designed to cope with medium and high volumes of caller traffic, so is the ideal communication choice for busy companies who require a reliable and stable phone connection.
Essentially, IP phones like the Cisco 7940 IP Phone use a technology called voice over IP. This technology allows the 7940 IP Phone to receive calls over the internet IP network rather than relying on the old PSTN network, which ordinary analogue phones rely upon. Taking calls over the internet via an IP connection allows users of the 7940 IP Phone to a greater variety of features than might have been previously possible with the ordinary analogue phone.
Incorporating two internal Ethernet ports, the 7940 IP Phone can be easily connected to the office computer. These two internal Ethernet ports are particularly useful if you require separate virtual LANs between office computers and the IP phone. Because the 7940 IP Phone can be easily administrated with little difficultly, it also ensures that these connections are more reliable and that the voice and data transmissions received and sent are more secure than they might be with other phone systems.
Overall the 7940 IP Phone allows an office to take four calls simultaneously. For those needing a greater capacity for calls the Cisco 7940G IP Phone would be a better choice as this allows twelve calls to be taken at the same time. Hence, the 7940G IP Phone would be a better choice for international businesses which require a larger call base.
Cisco 7940 IP Phone`s are very stylish, and the large LCD display screens and duplex speakers make communication clear and simple. Because all these features are incorporated into one slim line phone, it also provides a more tidy office environment. Simple volume controls for the handset and speakers also ensures that the user can adjust the volume levels to suit their own hearing requirements.
To make calls simple, the 7940 IP Phone can also be made compatible for use with a conventional headset, or even with a cell phone Bluetooth headset, using a range of Nortel headset adaptors. The Cisco 7940G and 7940 IP Phone is available from a range of suppliers on the internet including direct from Cisco Systems. For a more competitive price, used Cisco 7940G and 7940 IP Phone`s could be purchased using online internet auction sites.
