Ooma, a smart communications platform for businesses and consumers, today announced the Ooma DP1 Wireless Desk Phone for its Ooma Office business customers and Ooma Telo residential customers. The DP1 is a fully featured two-line phone that can be placed wherever it’s needed without requiring a nearby phone jack.
The DP1 for Ooma Office or Ooma Telo pairs wirelessly with an Ooma base station using the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT 6.0) protocol for a reliable connection at a range of up to 150 feet.
“Whether in a business office, a store, or a home work space, Ooma customers have told us they want the flexibility to have phones wherever they’re needed,” said Dennis Peng, vice president of product management at Ooma
“The DP1 provides all the features of a high-end desk phone, yet can go anywhere there’s an electrical outlet, without having to worry about adding a phone jack or running a phone wire across the room. There’s no longer any need to choose between flexibility and functionality in a desk phone – now you can have both.”
The DP1’s long list of features includes:
- Full two-line controls – place calls on hold and switch between calls
- Call conferencing – combine separate calls on two lines into one three-way conference call
- 32 programmable speed dials
- Full-duplex speakerphone
- Headset jack
- Message waiting indicator light
- Redial / Call logs
- Battery back-up for 36 hours of stand-by time and 7 hours of call time
- Ooma Office customers have one-touch access to advanced features such as company directory, music-on-hold, call transfer and send to voicemail
- Ooma Telo customers have one-touch access to advanced features such as intercom, send to voicemail and do-not-disturb
Ooma Office gives small and mid-sized businesses a “big company” phone system with advanced features including a virtual receptionist, ring groups, virtual fax, audio conferencing and a mobile app for staying connected while on the road. The cloud-based Ooma Office platform requires no service contracts and works with a company’s existing analog phones and fax machines, as well as Ooma-provisioned IP phones.
