Actiontec Electronics today announced a new generation of VoSKY Exchange, its Skype Certified family of PBX-to-Skype gateways.

VoSKY Exchange is a rack-mountable, PBX voice gateway that adds up to eight outgoing Skype lines to an office PBX without changes to existing PBX or phone equipment.

New features in VoSKY Exchange 9140 (four Skype lines) and 9180 (eight Skype lines) include:

* Remote user access, enabling employees who are out of the office to make Skype calls over the company’s VoSKY Exchange system by dialing the main company number and an access code.
* Global call transfers over Skype, enabling anyone in the company to transfer incoming landline calls to any phone number inside or outside the corporate office or to any Skype user name.
* Global numbering between offices, allowing businesses with multiple locations to create a global numbering plan which unifies the dialing plans of the different office locations together.
* Line-side (FXO) connectivity to the PBX, replacing the trunk-side (FXS) connection required in earlier models.

Pricing and availability through VoSKY resellers were not announced.
