What is a wireless phone system?
Wireless PBX systems rely on wireless technology and VoIP to manage business communications – reducing the need for the amount of cabling required when relying on cabled phone systems.
A wireless VoIP phone system is a flexible telephony solution that facilitates helpful voice communication features, integrations and provides many other benefits. Wireless phones are connected to local WiFi access points wirelessly either directly or using a DECT base station to bridge the gap between your network connection and handsets.

Benefits of wireless business phone systems

Explore what makes wireless phone systems so valuable for businesses.
Same Day Setup & Optional Self-Installation
With VoIP and wireless IP phones, you can benefit from the same-day installation of your business phone system.
Setting up your wireless VoIP phone system is easy, and self-installation can help you get started right away.
Once you have a VoIP package, it’s as easy as connecting your IP phones to a wall outlet and network switch or router with the appropriate CAT cabling. Next, follow the quick setup instructions and you can use the auto-provisioning modes (TFTP, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, RPS and more) for company-wide deployment.

Wireless business PBX systems are easy to install and rely on your internet connection and access points to facilitate and manage voice communications.
A wireless phone system from a trusted supplier offers excellent reliability. Plus, troubleshooting of issues can often be performed remotely and on-premise maintenance is usually not as complex when compared to landline systems.
Powerful IP features & integrations
Wireless phone systems rely on your VoIP technology which opens up a range of features for managing communications.
These features can help you manage everything from transferring calls between handsets, initiating conference calls, enabling voicemails, recordings and auto attendants to instant, analytics and monitoring.
Communication features can be performed on an individual wireless handset, or you may manage your system using a mobile or desktop app associated with a compatible unified communications platform or another integration.
Zero Compromise on Call Quality
Wireless phone systems provide professional high-quality audio using types of wideband codes to provide enhanced voice quality.
Wireless PBX systems are also usually equipped with noise-reduction technology to reduce disruptions in an office environment.
Some handsets may also have speakerphones as well as handset speakers for quality hands-free communication.
Intuitive modern design
Most wireless phones have a modern ergonomic design and intuitive interface for managing operations on each device.
In most cases, a screen and programmable keys can be used to manage many calling features, and phone system features can also be managed remotely using software solutions.
Wireless phone systems integrate easily and can help you improve your workflow.

Frequently asked questions about wireless phone systems
Why should I choose a wireless office phone system over other PBX systems?
A wireless office phone system is a more flexible PBX solution, offering a wide range of benefits and reducing the need for complex cabling associated with on-premise analogue phone systems.
While cloud-hosted PBX systems may reduce the need for physical handsets entirely, some organisations prefer to have physical handsets that they use to manage voice communications.
Wireless PBX systems provide a “best of both worlds” solution and allow businesses to manage calls using wireless handsets, reap the benefits of VoIP and enjoy fast, easy deployment company-wide.
Wireless handsets are connected to your network using access points or DECT base stations and provide a flexible solution that allows you to manage calls around the office.
How to choose the right business phone system?
When implementing the right business phone system, it’s important for organisations to consider their needs while also assessing their existing phone system design and network infrastructure.
Generally, businesses can rely on either an on-premise, analogue PBX system, Cloud PBX system, or hybrid PABX system to manage their voice communications. Each telephony solution will follow a different set of challenges for installation

What are important considerations to remember when installing a wireless PBX system?
Try to important to keep these key points in mind:
- Network environment and speed: Your internet connection will need to be reliable and fast enough to handle transporting voice data along with other data used by other devices on the same network. If you’re worried about data transfers competing for bandwidth on the same network, consider implementing VLAN.
- Proximity to access points and/or base stations: Wireless phones will connect to your access points, either directly or using base stations. The distance between handsets and these devices needs to be considered carefully when installing a wireless phone system.
- Number of handsets: Depending on the size of your team and solution you may require a number of handsets which will connect to access points and/or base stations. Your number of handsets and concurrent calls will need to align with the speed and stability of your network and be supported by your base station which connects to a limited number of handsets.
- Required features: As wireless PBX systems typically rely on VoIP technology, they can benefit from a range of VoIP features – including call recording, voicemail, call transfer, auto-attendant and more. Discuss the features your business will use to manage its voice communications with your phone system provider to ensure you have everything you need.
Why are wireless phone systems easy and less expensive to install than other types of phone systems?
Wireless PBX systems present the option of same-day installation, with lower costs and without compromising on quality when the system is implemented properly.
Cabling and network points associated with other types of phone systems are often expensive and time-consuming to install and may require site surveys and other installation-related costs.
Wireless phone systems are also easy to configure and often support auto-provisioning modes and software solutions for mass deployment. This makes implementing a company-wide communication solution even easier.
A wireless PBX system is also easy to move and reinstall with almost zero hassles, providing plug-and-play simplicity.
What is a cordless phone?
A cordless phone utilises radio frequency transmission instead of physical wiring to connect to your analogue or VoIP phone system and phone line (such as a copper landline or a virtual VoIP line).
A cordless handset typically relies on DECT or PHS to connect to a base station which bridges the gap between handsets, your PBX system and your virtual or physical phone line.
Some wireless phones may be able to connect directly to access points and rely on your internet connection and VoIP technology to facilitate calls.
How long does it take to port from my existing service provider?
It takes between 4 days and 2 weeks to port the number across to our network, however we will ensure you have uninterrupted voice services during this time.
