Wavelink Celebrates Sale of 1,000th KIRK DECT System

1 May, 2002
April 2002 marked an important milestone for Wavelink Communications with the sale of the 1,000th KIRK DECT cordless adjunct system. Described by Ilan Rubin, Wavelink’s Business Development Director, as "...a major achievement…", it reflects Wavelink’s rapid growth in becoming a leading supplier of Commercial cordless solutions in Australia and New Zealand in the last few years.

"Our corporate customer list gives some idea of our acceptance by users who demand nothing less than world’s best practice from their suppliers," said Rubin. "These include names like AMCOR, Kmart, Pilkington Glass, Carlton United Breweries, Coles, Bunnings, Lockwood Locks, Officeworks, Coca Cola, Cadbury Schweppes, TNT, Star Track Express, Holiday Inn, Mayne Nickless and Target."

Along the way to reaching this significant achievement, Wavelink has managed to become one of the top 2 distributors of KIRK branded adjunct cordless systems in the world. KIRK is regarded as a leading developer of DECT technology and now enjoys around 65% of the European adjunct DECT cordless PABX market. A reflection of the close working relationship between Wavelink and KIRK was Wavelink’s representation on KIRK’s stand at CEBIT held in Hannover from 13-20 March, 2002, where integration of BASEPage messaging with KIRK DECT was demonstrated to a world audience.

Noted Rubin, "We are very happy to see that KIRK is aggressively addressing key technology trends including VoIP and ISDN interfaces, which were officially launched at CEBIT. These developments will lead to even greater mutual success for both organisations in the coming years."
