If you are setting up your own small office, and are looking to curtail excessive costs, then two line phones are a natural choice. Since these phones can replace two single line phones, they help save a substantial quantity of connection coils. Two different phones will require separate jacks, wires and coils connecting them. However, with two line phones, the connection looks much less messy, while serving the purpose of two single line phones.
Additionally, even if you have two phones on each desk, but only one phone line that both sets are connected to, a person will have to wait until everyone else having access to the same phone line is not using it. The two line phone also helps save substantial amount of time lost waiting with a single line phone, by offering two phone lines everyone has access to. Thus, it helps reduce waiting time by at least one half.
These phones also allow separation of phone lines for business and private use. This advantage improves protection of privacy, as private phone lines are seldom being recorded. Additionally, it also allows uninterrupted communication channel with your customers as the business phone line is separate.
When deciding to use a multiple line phone, the businessman must be prepared to bear the extra phone bill associated with the product. This is probably inevitable, because not only will he have to bear the fixed line rent of two lines, but usage will also increase.
These phones accompany many additional features. Perhaps the most valued of these additional features of these phones is that they are cordless. This makes the phone set mobile, atleast within the office premises, thus offering the small business owner to manage the company with one phone set only.
These cordless two line phones also provide better frequency, lying in the 5.8 GHz range. Frequency is important, not only because it allows for uninterrupted conversation, but is also more secure, as lower frequencies are more prone to be penetrated and can also be over-heard easily by someone close by.
Prices of these phones vary by the corresponding features offered by each. The simple 2 line phone is available in prices ranging from $ 30 to $ 90, with the cordless type available near the higher end of the range. However, as you add additional features including clear display LCD, answering machine, voice mail, teleconferencing and paging features, the prices can go up to $ 400.
Thus, these phones offer a cost effective means of setting up the communication network in your small business. They promise dedicated lines for personal and business use, make your business place look less messy, protect your privacy, and are available with versatile features.
