Medium Size Telephone Systems

If you made the decision that you require a fully featured voice mail system, and predict your company will expand beyond twelve users within the next years you will have to consider investing in a medium sized business phone system. These systems are typical in companies with around 24 users. We recommend installing a "Hybrid" phone system. Hybrid systems are ideal for mid sized companies and offer many of the features much larger PBX systems offer. Hybrid System work with both proprietary and standard telephones, making it a cost effective solution as there might be places in the organisation that will not require a proprietary telephone.

With most medium sized phone systems size is defined as a combination of lines and extensions, called ports. The number of ports is the maximum number of connections that can be made to the phone system. Connections include outside lines and extensions, as well as any other telephone system accessories.

When planning for a new business phone system, you should take into account the future expansion of your company, by allowing for extra needs at an early stage. Even if your current telephone system is handling calls well, this may not be the case with any future expansion. A good business phone system should be able to handle expansion easily and cost effectively. All our recommended phone systems allow you to expand their capabilities, by adding new expansion cards, therefore increasing the number of ports available for use. Some systems can even be expanded by adding another cabinet, which is identical to the main cabinet and virtually doubles the capacity of your system. When planning it is important you enquire about the cost for expansion, and that it will come easily but also as affordable as possible.

To keep cost down consider a second user system. All our second user systems are fully refurbished, tested and come with the same quality most of our customers have grown accustomed to.
