This focus on security is crucial in today's digital landscape, where data breaches can have significant ramifications for both businesses and stakeholders.

Moreover, the Nortel 1100 series is designed for scalability. Businesses can start with a few units and easily expand their communication solutions as their operations grow. This flexibility makes it an attractive option for both small businesses and larger enterprises.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability is another feature of the Nortel 1100 series, simplifying installation by eliminating the need for separate power cables. This streamlining not only reduces installation costs but also provides a neat and organized workspace.
