Introducing Avaya D100/D160 – Finally a New Wireless Phone Option for IP Office!

After Avaya discontinued their popular Avaya 3810 wireless phones, our customers have always been asking for alternative recommendations.  Well, Avaya has finally answered the popular demands and came out with Avaya D100 SIP DECT wireless phone system!

The entire wireless system can be managed thru IP Office Manager with no additional configuration needed for a plug-and-play installation.  Not just a single-cell wireless system, it can be expanded with repeaters to cover additional area without more wiring.  The Avaya D100 base station is connected to the IP network and Power-over-Ethernet, and if you don’t have PoE switch you can also get PoE injectors like the Avaya SPPOE-1A to power the D100 base station.  It is compatible with IP Office R8.1 Feature Pack 1+ and while it does require IP resources like VCM module and IP client license per phone on top of that, at least we now have a more cost-effective wireless system for users who don’t require the robust features and range of Avaya IP-DECT and WiFi solutions.

The base station can connect with up to 8 Avaya D160 handsets and 5 Avaya D100 repeaters for added range.  The radio coverage for each D100 base station is 100-350 ft indoor and up to 7700ft in open field.  It supports IP Office features including Busy Lamp Field (BLF), Message Waiting Indicator (MWI), Programmable buttons, Emergency Calls, Hot desking and more.

Snom to Release the snom m9R with Repeater Functionality

Snom m9r

The engineers at snom have finally added some long awaited features to the snom M9. At first glance, the snom m9R looks identical to the snom m9 but with some major differences.  The snom M9R adds:

  • Repeater functionality
  • Higher data storage capacity
  • Greatly improved voice quality
  • Optional industry standard protective shell

The repeater functionality can only be guaranteed with a snom m9r base station and snom m9r handset and will not work with the snom m9 model. The final QA testing with the repeater is currently underway and expected to be completed soon so that deliveries can begin in Q3/Q4 2012.

Avaya IP Office Wireless Phone Options

Ever since Avaya discontinued their popular Avaya 3810 wireless phone, customers have been asking us: “what wireless phone options are available for my IP Office System?”

This has been a hard question to answer since most customers do not need the robust features and range that the Avaya IP-DECT and Avaya WiFi solutions carry.  While many have been wishing for an Avaya 3820 wireless phone, currently nothing is being developed yet.  Update (2/2013):  Avaya has released a new wireless phone option D100/D160

For a quick look, consider some of these wireless options currently available for your Avaya IP Office System:

  1. Avaya 3920 Cordless Phone: This can be used only on an IP Office running exclusively in “Partner” mode and requires a ETR-6 station card.
  2. Avaya/Nortel T7406e Cordless Phone: This can be used on the IP Office running both “IP Office” and “Partner” modes and requires a TCM-8 station card or expansion module. The features on the T7406e are great, but the phone requires a TCM station port, which most systems are not pre-configured with.
  3. Regular Analog Cordless Phone:  This can be used on the IP Office running both “IP Office” and “Partner” modes and requires an analog/combo station card or expansion module.   This is by far the most cost effective solution, however the feature set is minimal and the phone will act as a single line station.
  4. Avaya IP-DECT Solution (Avaya 3720, Avaya 3725, Avaya 3740, Avaya 3749): This can be used on the IP Office running in “IP Office” mode only and requires IP resources as well as appropriate licenses.  This solution is feature rich and very expandable; however, it is fairly pricey and requires some infrastructure.
  5. Avaya WiFi Phone Solution (Avaya 3641, Avaya 3645): This can be used on the IP Office running exclusively in “IP Office” mode and requires IP resources as well as appropriate licenses.  This solution is feature rich, can utilize existing WiFi networks, and is very expandable; however, is also fairly pricey and requires some infrastructure.

We know there are a great number of choices and things to consider, and we hope the recommendations listed above will help you get started.  If you have any questions or wish to go into further details regarding your specific system, please don’t hesitate to contact us at The Telecom Spot or leave a comment below.
