Wahsega’s line of PoE powered IP PBXs are an advanced IP PBX hardware appliance that allows Wahsega customers to easily create a full VoIP communication system with Wahsega’s intercoms, paging adapters, IP phones, IP speakers as well as any third-party SIP compliant devices. The Carina PBX Lite is a multi-functional device which can act as an IP PBX, Paging Server, DHCP server and a VoIP gateway.
Since the PBX Lite is an embedded appliance, not an application running on a PC or a Linux platform, it allows for rapid, fully functional boot times of 10-20 seconds and has near zero risk of viruses, and it is impervious to all common hacking methods. It is also designed to operate at Industrial temperature extremes (-40°C to +60°C). With the PBX Lite built in DHCP Server, it allows for simple LAN islands for paging and intercoms without the cumbersome setup issues using VoIP devices in peer-to-peer mode with static IP addresses.
What makes the PBX Lite unique is its super set of paging & background music functionality and ease of deployment capabilities.
With simple installation and programming, advanced functionality and reduced labor and installation costs, the Carina PBX Lite is the perfect solution for a wide range of applications.
