Description:

The ZIP 4x5 integrates the functions of a switch and router with a business phone, and adds additional functionality for ease and convenience. The phone is referred to as a "four by five" because it has four call appearances and five circuits. Four of the circuits connect to an Ethernet LAN or broadband connection, and one circuit provides an analog connection to the PSTN.

The ZIP 4x5 simplifies remote connectivity to the corporate network and phone system. The switch and router integrates firewall, NAT, and VPN functions. The device can connect directly to a broadband Internet connection such as a DSL or cable modem. With four external Ethernet ports, three additional IP devices such as computers, printers, and other phones can also connect to the network.

The ZIP 4x5 supports multiple options for hands free operation. The phone includes a standard headset jack, full duplex speaker phone with acoustic echo cancellation, and Bluetooth for use with a wireless headset (headset not included). Voice activated dialing allows users to initiate calls without touching the phone. With a wireless headset, users can answer calls even when they step away from the phone.

The ZIP 4x5 is 100% based on open standards. It uses SIP for call control, making it compatible with Windows Messenger and any IP phone system using the SIP standards. The switch on the phone supports all applicable standards for VLANs and QoS, ensuring it is compatible with any network, new or old.

The phone can be powered from an ac adapter or receive power over an Ethernet connection. The phone is simple to install and deploy. It is appropriate for use in the business office or in a home office. It can be managed from either location and can be provisioned at the business office before being given to the remote worker. The user of the phone never needs to make changes to the configuration. Users can plug the phone into their broadband connection and be productive in minutes.
