Iristel BROADFONE - Now offers VoIP over WiFi
2007-12-10

IRISTEL Inc., one of Canada's leading voice and data service providers is pleased to announce that it is now adding Hybrid Phones to its VoIP Solutions.
Hybrid phones grant users the opportunity to make connections using a local wireless Internet access point and seamlessly switch over to a cell phone network whenever necessary. The net result is enhanced flexibility in mobile communications not to mention the savings gained by shifting minutes that would otherwise count against a cell phone plan onto the Internet.
The union of short-range, high-speed access and cellular service brings together two technologies, creating opportunities for both collaboration and competition. Mobile operators have spent billions of dollars to upgrade their systems for high-speed data, or third-generation (3G), services. While offering a broader coverage area that exceeds WiFi's limited range, their bandwidth tops out at less than 500kbps, and thus cannot compare with wireless LAN technology that blazes at speeds up to 54mbps. Combining the ability to use both networks on a single device allows consumers to take advantage of the best each has to offer.
"As the CEO of a multinational corporation I am constantly on the phone, be it a landline call or a mobile one. It is not uncommon for me to have a mobile invoice in the hundreds of dollars per month," said Samer Bishay, President and CEO Iristel Inc. "During the course of the last year we have migrated all of the mobile phones for our staff to hybrid phones. The voice quality over WiFi is crystal clear and the cost savings makes this a business decision well worth talking."
Recently IRISTEL has been in discussions with local partners to allow IRISTEL subscribers the opportunity to utilize their WiFi networks. "By aligning the two services, WiFi supplier and IRISTEL, we would be able to eliminate the need for cellular usage for numerous individuals and entire firms in Canadian downtown cores, said Michael Gurr, Product Manager, Iristel Inc. "The potential cost savings is limitless."
IRISTEL's VoIP over WiFi can also be integrated into our Hosted PBX, or IP PBX. The user may have an extension on the IVR that can be dialled, if s/he is not on a WiFi network then the call can be routed to their mobile number. The flexibility and cost savings per user make switching an easy decision.
