Availability

Further, to reinforce global supply chain stability, Mitel recently announced the relocation of its IP phone production to Germany, in partnership with Gigaset, leveraging the country’s engineering and manufacturing automation and quality. In addition to shortened lead times for European customers, this provides additional assurance for 8×8 and Mitel customers operating in regulated industries and geographies.
