Phone System Installation Checklist for Dubai Offices
Introduction
Setting up a new office in Dubai? Or planning to upgrade your current phone system? A proper communication setup is one of the most important things your business needs to run smoothly.
Whether you’re a small business or a growing company, having a reliable office phone system makes it easier to talk to clients, manage teams, and stay connected — without any confusion or delay.
At Abiding Technical Services LLC, we help Dubai-based businesses install phone systems that are smart, modern, and easy to use. Here’s a simple checklist to guide you through the process.
1. Understand What Your Business Needs
Start with the basics. Ask yourself:
- ▪️How many employees need a phone line?
- ▪️Do you want desk phones or mobile-based calling?
- ▪️Will your team be working from the office, from home, or both?
2. Choose Between VoIP and PBX
There are two main types of office phone systems:
- ▪️VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol): Works through the internet. It’s cost-effective, flexible, and great for remote work.
- ▪️PBX (Private Branch Exchange): A traditional system that uses cables and hardware, often installed on-site.
3.Check If Your Office Network Is Ready
Before installing anything, make sure your internet and wiring can handle the system.
- ▪️Good internet speed (especially for VoIP)
- ▪️Proper cabling (like Cat6 wires)
- ▪️Power backup for network equipment
- ▪️Enough ports for phones and routers
