Switching to a PBX phone system may not be an ideal strategy to support an environmentally friendly business ecosystem, but office and home phone systems where installing a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phone system would save on expenses and more.
The following points explain how an IP PBX telephone system can be environmentally friendly:
1. The possibility of videoconferencing via the Internet reduces air pollution
The IP PBX system enables organizations to save on vehicle operating costs by enabling videoconferencing. Consequently, not to mention road travel, long flights could also be avoided.
2. The IP PBX system means less use of copper:
Traditional telephone systems require more wires if the distance between the caller and the receiver is very long. This would undoubtedly require a large amount of copper wire. The requirement is further increased due to the inevitable wear of the copper conductors. Both home and office are becoming eco-friendly thanks to the transition to a VoIP telephone system. Since broadband Internet is used to connect calls, it is assumed that this type of office telephone system can function without reliance on the Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN), which requires telephone wiring in countries extending across continents.
3. Less e-waste
Traditional phone lines invariably require hardware to function. However, an IP PBX system would only require computers and the only other hardware components are the phones and the PBX system. The latter also becomes unnecessary if the VoIP office telephony system provider operates the entire PBX system on behalf of the service user. Therefore, less hardware means less wear and tear and less obsolescence. Thus, an IP PBX phone generates relatively less e-waste.
4. Fewer telephone lines would require fewer telephone poles
Although transnational lines are sometimes installed beneath the ocean, at the end-user point they are accessible to homes and offices via telephone poles. The poles are usually made of wood. Switching to an IP PBX telephone system will reduce wood consumption. This reduces the number of trees that are cut down.
5. No Fax E-mail – Save paper and ink
An office telephone system that uses broadband Internet will invariably use e-mail instead of fax. Even though IP fax services are available for organizations that require a large amount of printed data, organizations that do not require such extensive exchange of paper-based information can instead settle for e-mail and not only save trees but also save on maintenance expense.
6. Teleworking: A new way to run your business without affecting the environment
When employees work from home or work remotely, the company’s energy consumption is significantly reduced. In addition, office resources do not need to be used to monitor inefficient use of devices and other devices such as computers, lighting fixtures, and so on. Working from home also reduces the use of paper and stationery as the costs are borne by the worker himself. An office telephone system using broadband Internet enables teleworking via videoconferencing and the use of e-mail to deliver materials.
