Linksys to Release Broadband Communications System For SOHO’s

New Broadband Communications System is designed for the 10 and under small office home office

According to a recent article in CRN, Linksys will soon be releasing a VoIP phone system for SOHO users. The system is reported to be similar to the Linksys Voice System that includes the SPA9000 phone system, except it will be smaller in scale. According to Sherman Scholte, Director of product management at Linksys, “Having a broadband communication system in the house will allow [consumers] to really see the true benefits of a voice system that they couldn’t have with existing old-world cordless phone systems.”

While I am certainly not surprised to see Linksys moving in the business VoIP direction since the company was founded as a SOHO routing company, I have never really thought of the Linksys SPA9000 and the corresponding components of the Linksys Voice System to truly be robust enough for the small business. In fact the more that we work with the system, it truly is best suited for a SOHO environment. It will be interesting to see what features and functionality will be included in the Broadband Communications System, considering the LVS 9000 is pretty water-down already.

Perhaps a VoIP gateway would help?
