SIP Phones are advanced phones designed to allow smooth conversations with HD voice quality, easy operation and low power consumption. Panasonic’s Internet-enabled session initiation protocol (SIP) cordless telephones KX-TGP500 and KX-TPA50 were recently launched by Phone.com (News - Alert), a provider of virtual office telephone services.

With this offering, the home and business electronics company touts to have become one of the first Internet telephony service providers to introduce Panasonic (News - Alert) Internet-based SIP cordless phones as a standard product offering.

Panasonic Internet-based SIP cordless phones are ideal for small businesses that need mobility within an office, the ability to retain outstanding call quality, and the myriad of new features available from cloud-based phone services. They are also ideal for residential and home office users.

Panasonic’s systems are also expandable to six DECT (News - Alert) 6.0 cordless handsets, can support three concurrent calls, and are standardized for high-definition (HD) voice communications. Anyone wanting the flexibility of a cordless phone with the value afforded by Internet phone services now has a viable alternative to the old method of using an analog terminal adapter (ATA) and plugging in non-Internet-enabled devices.

Furthermore, the new phone system comes with one handset and the option to purchase additional Panasonic KX-TPA50 handsets. Handsets on both phones feature calling status displays on large 2.1-inch screens with white backlight. Features include call forwarding, voice mail, call transferring and a speaker phone that reviews describe as excellent. When fully charged, the phone provides five hours of talk time or roughly 10 days of standby.

Phone.com is a cloud-based phone company offering a variety of innovative and economical business and home phone services for entrepreneurs, home offices, small businesses and individuals. According to Panasonic’s website, the combination of hosted voice phone services like the Phone.com Virtual Office with the Panasonic cordless SIP phone system creates a “phone system in a box,” offering exceptional value to today’s smart consumers.

Back in October 2011, SIP phones and SIP endpoints leader Panasonic unveiled a webinar in its three part series, “Exceeding Expectations – The Power of SIP Communications for Small and Medium Sized Businesses.”
