Original Press Release:



TalkSwitch® Introduces the Industry's Most Dynamic Entry-Level Hybrid Telephone System for Small Business



At only $695, the 240vs is loaded with features and offers unsurpassed call handling and growth options

OTTAWA, May 30 /- TalkSwitch(R), a leader in the design and manufacture of innovative telephone systems for small and multi-location businesses, today announced the release of the TalkSwitch 240vs, a system designed to capture the largest segment of North American industry - the very small business.

With capacity for 2 CO lines and 4 local extensions, the 240vs is an important development for all existing and potential TalkSwitch customers. The smallest businesses get a hybrid system that gives them the ability to configure local extensions as either analog or IP, plus the full networking and upgrade capabilities that were previously only available on larger systems. Businesses already using TalkSwitch systems gain even more options for expanding their system capacity.

The market opportunity for the 240vs is enormous. The very small business market has been ill served by traditional telephone system providers, and many of the new vendors on the scene do not truly understand the current needs of the small business. TalkSwitch was founded in 1990 specifically to address that market and has built a sales channel and significant customer base by providing systems perfectly tailored for use by those companies. The 240vs further cements TalkSwitch's reputation as the top vendor for small business telephone systems.

"The 240vs provides a new level of flexibility for all of our customers," said Jan Scheeren, President and CEO, TalkSwitch. "No other system of this size offers more features and more call handling options for the price. Best of all, it's an all-in-one system with no hidden costs. Now every business can have a professional telephone system that is very owner-friendly in terms of maintenance and configuration, and that provides great expansion and networking options."

The 240vs joins the 244vs, 280vs, 284vs, 480vs and 484vs systems in the TalkSwitch family of fully hybrid telephone systems. As true hybrids, the VS line goes beyond just working with VoIP and traditional networks, it lets users configure every local extension as either analog or IP. The user can decide on the mix of analog and IP extensions they want, allowing for a truly customized solution.

As part of the VS product line, the 240vs is ideal for use with the latest TalkSwitch software applications including the Attendant Console. A block of 8 additional IP Extensions can be added to each 240vs if desired.

Like all TalkSwitch telephone systems, the 240vs is available through authorized TalkSwitch resellers, or directly from www.talkswitch.com. The 240vs is priced at $695USD.
