Getting To Know Your Prestige

This chapter describes the key features and applications of your Prestige.

The Prestige 2000W_V2 is a wireless telephone that operates over the Internet. It gives users the benefits of Internet telephony, for example cheaper calls, without the physical restrictions of a fixed Internet connection (it provides mobility).

Sending compressed voice signals over the Internet is called Voice over IP or VoIP. The Prestige is a Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) - based wireless VoIP telephone. SIP is an internationally recognized standard for implementing VoIP.

The Prestige allows you to make and receive VoIP calls as long you are within range of an IEEE802.11b enabled wireless network.

The Prestige is easy to use and configure via the LCD display and keypad. You can even manage your settings over the Internet using the Prestige's web configurator.
