NEW OFFERING – PBX phone systems

Concerning PBX Systems:

PBX stands for Private Branch Exchange, which is a private telephone network used within a company. Users of the PBX phone system share a number of outside lines for making external phone calls.

In a move to keep current with the latest technology and to better serve our customers, Fishers Island Telephone will no longer be offering or supporting Avaya Phone Systems, effective immediately. We will be offering and supporting the following PBX systems instead:

1. The NEC SL2100
2. The Adtran NetVanta 7100 IP PBX

The NEC product is a cost effective feature rich replacement for the outdated Avaya systems.

The Adtran NV7100 is not only a feature rich IP PBX but can also serve as a Router, Power over Ethernet Switch and Firewall. An all in one solution for your voice and data needs. This combined with Adtran branded Polycom VVX SIP Phones makes this a formidable and powerful phone data system.

For more information visit these links below or call us.  631-788-7001.
