IP phones are a wonderful resource that can provide an organization with quality, efficiency, and a number of great features. These products are produced by a variety of vendors, and different models will have varying capabilities. However over time even the best IP phones will start to wear down and break, which can lead to poor call quality and malfunctions. That is why it is important to periodically upgrade to new devices which may have greater capabilities and performance.The process of IP phone recycling can be a little bit complicated. You can’t just throw these devices out, because that can open you up to a number of security exploits. It also damages the environment, and can put you in danger of violating local state laws in places like New York, Miami, Dallas, Chicago and Los Angeles.There are a number of environmental problems associated with the disposal of IP phones. These devices often have large amounts of plastic in them, which is a non biodegradable substance that will not break down naturally into the environment. In some cases they may also contain harmful chemicals, which can leak out over time, causing harm to animals and plant life, while also poisoning the soil.Another problem with simply throwing decommissioned phones away is that it precipitates the production of new products. These will require the expenditure of natural resources and energy to make, which further harms the environment. This is why it is important to hire a company that can break down these devices, in an environmentally friendly way, and the materials that they were made from are used in the production of new items.Recycling outdated IP phones is also a lot safer than simply tossing them in the trash. These devices will often contain traces of data that can be acquired by clever hackers. If your information falls into the hands of your competitors they will be able to use it against you, either to ruin your companies reputation or as an advantage in acquiring customers and clients.OceanTech can eliminate that danger by wiping these devices completely clean of any data that may be lingering using an extremely thorough process. These outdated IP phones are then broken down into their base materials, and are repurposed in the creation of new equipment. That makes it impossible for anyone to retrieve any information from them using any method.The process to recycle IP phones is extremely efficient. They have the highest quality equipment, and an experienced staff that knows how to extract all of the useful materials from a device without any waste. This allows them to then sell those components to manufacturers, and pass the savings on to you.
