Teo Announces TSG-6 Certification for New PoE-enabled IP Phones
Company receives government security approval for two new PoE-enabled phones
MUKILTEO, Wash., July 7 -- Teo (http://www.teotech.com/), an innovative telecommunications company formerly known as Tone Commander Systems, announced today that it received TSG-6 certification for two new Power over Ethernet (PoE)-enabled IP phone models from the National Telephone Security Working Group (NTSWG). Teo is the first manufacturer to receive Committee on National Security Systems (CNSS) Class A certification for a PoE-enabled phone.
Both new models include 802.3af PoE support and a built-in switched Ethernet port, which allows a single network connection to support both a PC and phone. The U.S.-manufactured phones are industry-standard SIP compliant and are capable of working with virtually all SIP compatible systems including Cisco, Avaya, Nortel, Asterisk, Shoretel and Broadsoft, as well as many others.
The Teo 7810PoE-TSGA is TSG-6 Class A certified and may be used in Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) areas without any other equipment restrictions. The less expensive 7810PoE-TSGB is TSG-6 Class B certified and may only be used in applications where the Ethernet switch is collocated within the SCIF.
"With these certifications, Teo continues its tradition of being a leading provider of highly secure, government-grade communications systems," said Steve Hill, president of Teo. "We now have the largest range of TSG-6 approved telephone equipment in the industry."
These new phones add to Teo's extensive line of TSG-6-certified telephone equipment. In April 2009, the company announced TSG-6 certification for its 7810 TSG-6 IP phone - the first VoIP phone to be approved by the NTSWG and the CNSS. Other Teo/Tone Commander TSG-6 products include the industry's only certified TSG-6 ISDN phones and TSG-6 NT1 ISDN Network Terminations.
Pricing and availability
Both models are available now. GSA pricing for the IP Phone 7810PoE-TSGA is $679; the 7810PoE-TSGB is $599. For more information, call 800.524.0024 or email sales@teotech.com.
