Telephone Planet

Going green in your business means doing more with less. It entails learning to utilize scarce resources in a more efficient manner. It means becoming a steward of the land, air and water. Conserving resources not only helps the planet it can help revolutionize your business model and equal substantial savings over time.

Most businesses are already recycling paper, plastic and perhaps printer cartridges. But another major opportunity for conserving resources is the phone system. One interesting development with the ascension of Voice Over IP (VoIP) technology in the area of phone systems are the conservation implications. By integrating current LAN infrastructures with an outsourced VoIP provider an incredible amount of resources are conserved. You can think of it as telephone system car pooling. Many businesses and people share the same telephone system.

By integrating voice and data, the entire old school phone system hardware, and all of the accompanying wiring become obsolete. New construction planning to integrate voice and data over a single VLAN saves on cabling, hardware and the power to run it all. The actual installation costs are substantially lower, and the long term maintenance and upgrades are also lower.
