3CX Phone System v5.1 Makes Integration of Remote Workers and Branch Offices Easy
(Market Wire Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge) LONDON, February 20 / MARKET WIRE/ --
3CX has announced the release of version 5.1 of 3CX
Phone System for Windows. The latest version of the award-winning IP PBX
has an integrated 3CX Tunnel which simplifies firewall configuration by
channeling all VoIP traffic over a single port; making it easy for remote
workers to connect to their company's PBX and for Network Managers to
connect different remote PBX systems between them. Traditionally, firewall
configuration for remote SIP / VoIP systems and/or extensions can represent
a challenge, because it requires many open ports.
Nick Galea, CEO at 3CX said: "We know how important it is for businesses
nowadays to have remote workers and branches seamlessly integrated to their
company's phone system, and the addition of the 3CX Tunnel to 3CX Phone
System for Windows facilitates this process.
"The 3CX Tunnel, unlike other similar tunneling protocols, is not
proprietary and can be used with popular VoIP softphones and hard phones.
This is ideal for businesses, as they can use a variety of telephone
options with their IP PBX depending on their needs and budget."
Key advantages of the 3CX Tunnel:
-- Easy firewall configuration -- choose any port (ie. port 80) for
seamless networking
-- Remote workers do not need to edit the firewall configuration to be
able to connect to the IP PBX from any location (ie. home, hotels,
conference centers, airports, etc.)
-- Mobility, productivity and cost-saving advantages for businesses from
the integration of remote workers and branches to the company's phone
system
3CX Phone System for Windows allows businesses to completely break free
from the restrictions of hardware-based, proprietary phone systems. Built
on the open SIP standard, 3CX IP PBX interoperates with all popular SIP
phones, VoIP Gateways and VoIP providers.
Main advantages of adopting 3CX Phone System for Windows:
-- Increases mobility -- allows remote workers to be seamlessly
integrated to the company's phone system
-- Eliminates expensive telephone tag by using the inbuilt Presence
feature
-- Simpler phone system administration via a web-based configuration
-- Vendor independent -- significant cost savings by choosing VoIP
provider and SIP equipment of choice
-- Delivers unified communications technology by merging voice and data
networks, allowing businesses to simplify real time delivery of
information.
