Your Switch Off Checklist

It’s estimated that around 33%* of businesses are still using ISDN as their underlying communications infrastructure. Collectively, the Channel has a big job to do. With our range of products and services, we’re here to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption for your customers, enabling you to maximise the opportunities that are available.

We’ve put together a switch off checklist to cover all bases when it comes to helping customers navigate the switch off.

Customer Types:

Budget Conscious/Committed to existing systems:

Eager to Upgrade:

Whether there’s a reluctance to upgrade, complex cabling or budget constraints, the following product lines could be the key to these customers:

The switch off poses the perfect opportunity to upgrade outdated systems. We offer a range of solutions for those looking to explore different options:

The Cross-Sell

But that’s not all! For all types of customers, there are some crucial considerations that they may not have thought about when deciding how to proceed with the switch-off:

	Routers and APs		Do they have the necessary hardware to support the new VoIP devices and ensure comprehensive coverage?
	UPS Devices		Are their critical systems adequately protected and capable of functioning during power outages or emergencies?
	IP Alerting		Have they considered the need for an IP alerting system to replace their existing one? Many overlook the connection between their phone lines and alerting systems.
	Access Control & Intercoms		If they haven’t updated these systems recently, they may soon find them becoming obsolete with the switch-off.

With our range of technical services and support, these items can become a simple cross-sell – we can even arrange the installation for you. Or why not let us train your team or provide remote installation support. We’ve got everything you need to seize the opportunities that the switch-off will bring, ensuring a smooth transition for both you and your customers.

Product Information

Winter often comes with its own challenges but 2020 could bring one of our most challenging winters yet. Ensuring business continuity in the face of potential adverse weather conditions can be tricky. Combine that with a global pandemic, a national lockdown, local restrictions and self-isolation and it’s easy to see that having the right work from home solution couldn’t be more important.

Prepare for Winter with ProVu

	PSU/PoE Injector/Switch	For those utilising a VoIP phone outside of the office, additional power supplies, PoE injectors or switches may be needed for devices to function. Many homes aren’t often set up for the wired connection of multiple devices. Switches can provide an ideal solution for connecting numerous items to the internet.
	Softphones & Licenses	Access calls and messaging on any device. Whether your customers enjoy making and taking calls via their mobile, computer or on a deskphone, softphones offer you a flexible communications solution which can be remotely managed. With options available from CounterPath and 3CX, we can provide the right solution for your needs.
	Headsets	If you don’t have one, you need one! Not only do they help to mask your peculiar taste in music, they’re also key to maintaining a professional experience with built-in noise cancelling. We supply headsets to suit all budgets and requirements get in touch to find out more.
	USB Cameras	Both Yealink and Fanvil offer compact USB cameras. The UVC30-Desktop and CM60 devices are ideal for connecting desktop computers and laptops, perfect for keeping connected virtually.
	Desk Phones	Many users are accustomed to using a desk phone, maintaining the same set up at home can be a great way to create some level of normality to workers who are new to home working.
	WiFi & Cordless phones	Fed up of having a network cable running across multiple rooms? WiFi & DECT phones offer an ideal solution for those looking to save the trip.
	Personal Speakers	A mini conference phone, just for you. Personal speakerphones provide a great level of audio and call quality, helping to maintain a professional approach, regardless of location.
	Provisioned Hardware	Save yourself the hassle. We can ship over 200 devices from across 11 different brands pre-provisioned, ready to work out-of-the-box. Simply add your preferred configuration settings to your order on ProSys and we’ll take care of the rest. What’s more, you can then remotely manage your provisioned hardware on ProSys enabling you to carry out firmware upgrades and device settings from the comfort of your kitchen table.
