Avaya aims at enterprise with modular VOIP phones

Dzubeck also said that because some models contain a subset of all the features, this allows Avaya to price the phones more competitively. "Instead of spending US$1,000 on a phone, now you can classify a phone by features so they are competitive against the likes of Cisco," he said.

The phones will also be upgradable with modules for USB, Gigabit Ethernet, and keyboards.

Model 9620 and Model 9630 will be available next month. Model 9650 and 9610 will be available in early 2007.
