Benefits for your dealership

Rationalised product portfolio – It is no longer necessary to deal in both the KIRK 600 and KIRK 1500IP product lines. All applications can be served by the KIRK 600v3

Reduced support overhead - With only one product to support maintenance stock can be reduced.   

Training and resource gains - Installation and support engineers need know only one product.   

Reduced installation costs - Installation material and labour costs fall due to the Power over Ethernet capability of the 600/3 server and there being no need to run a twisted pair cable back to a master server.

Greater product line sales – Larger order volumes are expected because of the ability to deliver traffic and coverage requirements more closely matched to user requirements.

Easier customer support, upgrade, and delivery - With a system structure that is based on multiple installations of the basic 600/3 unit and there is no equipment build or commissioning overhead normally associated with 1500IP based systems

Easier selling – The almost plug and play capability of the installation process along with scalability advantages of the technology removes any related sales objections allowing you to concentrate on selling the benefits of DECT wireless.

Benefits for your customers

New system features – Handsets benefit from caller ID

Future proofing – Single-cell sites can be upgraded to multi-cell sites and multi-cell sites expanded incrementally as a site grows

No installation upheaval -  Requiring only a LAN connection, installation of an additional cell reduces to fixing the 600/3 to a wall or ceiling and connecting to the LAN.  Power cabling and twisted pair signal cable are not required.

Handsets work at all sites – Employees can user their handsets at any site

Easy expandability - The network can be expanded one cell at a time.  Large capital investment decisions are not required and the addition of a new cell involves little more than fixing a new unit to a wall or ceiling.

Maintenance gains – Server configuration settings can be backed up allowing easy swap out for maintenance. 

Corporate wide application - Expandability to 256 wireless units means that traffic and coverage requirements of the largest site can be met whilst the solution can be scaled down to a single Kirk Wireless Server 600v3 unit to meet the requirements of the smallest site.

System Economics

Considering only equipment costs, as the comparative charts show, the majority of 600v3 installations will deliver savings when compared with a 1500IP based solution.   When the potential for reduced installation costs is factored in the 600/3 becomes even more attractive as a system option.
