| 11th April 2005 - ZyXEL Communications, a leading broadband
access solutions provider, plans to unveil ZyXEL P-5000W,
an innovative IP video phone, for home users at CeBIT
2005. This world-leading multifunctional touch-screen
IP video phone enables a value-added multimedia service
platform for IP Telephony Service Providers (ITSPs); ZyXEL
P-5000W can be customized for service provider needs,
and this enables ITSPs to offer high-quality video/voice
communication and unique digital contents to boost competitive
advantages as well as profits.
"ZyXEL P-5000W opens up a new chance for service
providers to offer add-on services to their subscribers,
and thus profit from these offerings," said Jerry
Lin, vice president of ZyXEL. "Based on a high-performance
hardware platform, P-5000W is capable of handling various
multimedia applications."
"ZyXEL P-5000W's large, clear touch-panel LCD
screen is a perfect medium for digital contents like
online shopping, weather report, financial news, music
broadcasts and commercials," said Allen Lin, Manager
of CPE Product Business. "In households, ZyXEL
P-5000W can also act as a personal information manager
with calendar and address book functions. With these
features, service providers can take advantage of the
new service platform to emphasize their uniqueness and
ensure subscriber loyalty, therefore increase revenue
through the new services."
ZyXEL P-5000W sports a large 5-inch touch-panel LCD
screen, built-in CMOS camera and microphone. Home users
can take the detachable dual-purpose Bluetooth wireless
handset below the screen, or use their own Bluetooth-compliant
headsets to make phone calls anywhere at home. More
than a chatting device, the handset of P-5000W doubles
as an infrared remote control for users to select onscreen
options from a distance. Boasting sleek, stylish metallic
silver exterior and standalone/wall-mount design, ZyXEL
P-5000W is bound to glorify the room it resides.
ZyXEL P-5000W supports the SIP (RFC 3261) communication
standard, therefore can be deployed on existing SIP
network phone infrastructure, which ensures the interoperability
with other SIP client devices. In addition, its Auto-provisioning
feature also reduces the personnel cost for deployment
significantly.
