Foreword
Congratulations on the purchase of your snom 200 Voice over IP
telephone!
Telephony is part of our everyday life. Over a period of more
than 100 years a form of communication has evolved that is impossible
to ignore. In spite of the new technology base of the snom 200, most of
its look and feel will be very familiar to you and you should be able to use
it intuitively.
The world of the Internet, on the other hand, has opened up a
whole range of new possibilities. Many users work with web browsers and
own one or more email accounts. These users will nd it easy to manage
the phone via its web interface or to make a call to, for example, “sip:
john@domain.de”.
We are condent that developments in the computer industry will
follow those in the telecom world.
VoIP is not only about transporting speech over data networks.
It is about interoperability and breaking up a vertical market, as well
as streamlining business processes by seamlessly integrating the
telephone into computer networks and applications. With its technical
exibility, snom’s commitment to all open and relevant standards and
our cooperation with other vendors in the VoIP industry, the snom 200
represents a safe investment for the future.
We would like to take this opportunity to wish you a great time
in the VoIP world.
