New Yealink SIP-T27P VoIP Phone for Non-Gigabit Environments

Yealink puts it into 6th gear and comes out with another desk phone and also a brand new conference phone.

Yealink has officially the SIP-T27P VoIP Phone and the CP860 VoIP Conference phone and is available for purchase today.

T27P for Non-Gigabit Environments

Along with the recent release of the SIP-T29G, Yealink decided to release another phone that fits in the non-gigabit environments.

Donā€™t get me wrong, the Yealink SIP-T27P is still very feature rich and can handle up to 6 VoIP accounts. Here are some other features of the brand new T27P:

  • HD voice: HD handset, HD speaker
  • Wall mountable (optional)
  • 3.66″ 240×120-pixel graphical LCD with backlight
  • Busy Lamp Field (BLF)
  • Simple, flexible and secure provisioning options

CP860 Conference Phone Helps Complete Yealink Endpoint Options

The Yealink CP860 VoIP Conference Phone is quite a release in 2015 for Yealink.

This puts them into a whole new environment and starts to complete the VoIP endpoint options for any level business.

The rule of thumb is that when you need to purchase 10 – 15 VoIP desk phones you should be looking to purchase some type of conference phone.

If I were you I would be looking at the CP860 between the rich feature and the great price point, this phone really hits on all cylinders.

Here are just some of the features of the CP860:

  • 10-feet (3-meter)microphone pickup
  • Optional Yealink CPE80 Expansion Microphones for extended range
  • Yealink Optima HD voice
  • Background noise suppression
  • Echo Cancellation
  • 5-way conferencing calls
  • 192×64-pixel graphical LCD with backlight
  • And many moreā€¦

4 Hacks for Work Life Balance

February 28, 2015 by Nathan Miloszewski

If you’re striving for a good work / life balance there are a couple schools of thought.

Amanda Abella at Care2 wrote the article, Why Work Life Balance Doesn’t Exist, saying that:

Work life balance became a major buzz word in the health and lifestyle community because people felt like they had to find ways to handle stress…The reason so many fail at work life balance is because they try to cram their activities into a perfectly balanced schedule…The point is the life is fluid. Nothing is ever the same. By trying to ā€œbalanceā€ our lives into equal parts weā€™re working against that.

On the other hand, The Independent’s Antonia Molloy is reporting that A quarter of UK professionals are unhappy with their work-life balance, survey finds:

Advancements in technology make it harder than ever to ‘switch off’ outside the office and achieve an ideal work-life balance.

Oops, and here we are at VoIP Supply selling some of that mobility and Unified Communications technology that doesn’t allow people to “switch off.” Shame on us.

Well, whichever camp you fall in to, here are some time saving ideas to help make your working life easier and your business grow faster without you working 24 hours a day.

 

9 Secrets to Increasing Your eCommerce Revenue: Ā “The average American spends more than 2,000 hours a year – working. Yet why do we still feel like we are always behind?”

Craftsy: Ā “Education designed to help you succeed: with Craftsy you can learn when, where, and how you like.”
