"We are proud to be partnering with Caesars Palace during its
expansion of one of Las Vegas'
most iconic hotels. Hospitality is one of our strategic areas of
focus and we expect it will be one of our growth drivers," said
Allan Wong, Chairman and Group CEO
of VTech Holdings Ltd. "Our strong R&D capability and economies
of scale have always enabled us to introduce innovative,
feature-rich products that are competitively priced. We are now
leveraging this expertise to benefit our customers in the
hospitality industry and their guests."
More than 660 guestrooms in Octavius Tower have been installed
with S2420 2-line SIP cordless phones in the bedrooms, and S2320
SIP TrimStyle phones with tethered handsets in the bathrooms.
VTech is also installing analog models in other towers of
Caesars Palace. The phones were installed on a Nortel CS1000 PBX
system, one of the many systems with which VTech SIP phones are
compatible.
SIP is fast becoming the most sought after telephony platform
for customers wanting the best solution. SIP allows users to
receive and make phone calls using VoIP (voice over internet
protocol) technology, adding to the convenience and luxury of the
guest experience.
"In addition to Caesars Palace, VTech is shipping products to
major hotel brands such as Hilton, Hyatt and Mandarin Oriental. Our
products are now going to the US, Europe and Asia. With a worldwide sales team in place and
channel partners in key countries, VTech is well-positioned to tap
the full potential offered by the hospitality industry," Mr. Wong
said.
