Mitel Delivers Affordable IP PBX for Australian Small Businesses

<p>Mitel® has today announced the Australian availability of the Mitel 3000 Communications System (CS), an easy to use IP PBX solution suitable for any small business.</p>
<p>The 3000 CS is an integrated communications platform using the latest IP technology. Designed to be easily upgradeable, the 3000 CS supports from 2 to 52 users with both Digital and IP Technologies. The affordable 3000 CS is an ideal replacement for traditional Key Systems and PBX systems, which allows small businesses to improve their customer service using sophisticated call handling, automatically directing calls to the correct person, implementing least cost call routing, and deploying business grade voice mail.
Gwilym Funnell, Vice President Asia Pacific commented, “Small businesses across Australia are looking for ways to achieve more at lower cost. Our new 3000 CS can help small businesses to increase the productivity of their employees, while making it easy for them to work more effectively from home.”</p>
<p>Existing analog equipment such as cordless phones, EFTPOS terminals, and fax machines can be directly connected into the new 3000 CS solution. An optional broadband module for the 3000 CS makes it possible for small businesses to take full advantage of teleworking and unified communications technologies. The expansion also includes four switched 10/100 Ethernet ports, IP routing, a firewall, and an inbuilt 802.11g Wireless LAN access point.</p>
<p>Teleworking and unified communications are able to increase employee productivity for even the smallest business. Teleworking makes it easy for a business to provide employees with a fully functional phone extension while they are working from home. Unified communications allows users to make and receive phone calls directly from their Windows PC with the Mitel 5100 softphone, as well as adding convenient features such as click to dial, and integration with Microsoft Outlook.</p>
<p>The 3000 CS is available immediately, and is distributed in Australia by 24/7 Distribution.</p>
