Broadcom VoIP Technology Enables State-of-the-Art IP Phones for the Hospitality Industry that Provide Superior Voice Quality and a Full-Featured Multimedia Experience
LAS VEGAS, Jan 08, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ — 2008 International CES — Broadcom Corporation (Nasdaq: BRCM), a global leader in semiconductors for wired and wireless communications, today announced that Teledex, the leading worldwide provider of guest room telephones for the hospitality industry, has selected its voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology for three of Teledex’s latest state-of-the-art IP phones. Advanced Broadcom® VoIP processors and flexible development software enables Teledex to deliver a unique line of session initiated protocol (SIP) and hybrid (analog/SIP) phones that provide hotel guests with exceptional voice quality and rich multimedia features.
"Voice over IP has become prevalent in the hospitality industry since significant cost savings can be achieved from only having to maintain a single network that carries both voice and data traffic," said Stan Schatt, Vice President and Networking Research Director for ABI Research. "As a result, major hotel chains have been early adopters of VoIP technology."
The Teledex phones that integrate Broadcom’s VoIP technology include the Teledex Hybrid HD6200 series and the Teledex SIP LD4200 series. Both series of Teledex IP phones leverage Broadcom’s advanced BCM1103 VoIP processor that combines superior voice services with rich, graphical content to meet the specific needs of today’s hotel environment. By enabling advanced communications features over the hotel’s existing IP network, Teledex’s VoIP phones leverage common browser-based technologies that enable content and applications development in an open, collaborative environment.
Teledex also selected Broadcom’s BCM1190 VoIP processor for the popular SIP ND2200 series, which is the first non-display VoIP phone designed specifically for the hotel industry. The Broadcom BCM1190 IP enables Teledex to deliver cost effective, yet feature-rich IP phones, like the Teledex SIP ND2200 series, with the same voice quality and security features as higher-end models.
"Broadcom’s expansive VoIP portfolio and unique integration capabilities have enabled the development of three distinct models in the Teledex VoIP phone lineup," said Paul King, Director of North America Sales for Teledex. "Our innovative hotel guest room IP phones, with a complete solution for guest room deployments, present a consistent look and feel across all models, as well as outstanding performance characteristics."
"Today’s IP phones offer a wide range of features, especially in the hospitality industry where content usually accessed on televisions can now be accessed on VoIP phones," said Rob Franzo, Director of Marketing for Broadcom’s VoIP line of business. "The VoIP hospitality products developed by Teledex are innovative, feature-rich, low powered, and designed to be a multifaceted tool specifically for the hospitality industry."
