How do I integrate a phone system into a reception desk?

A properly specified reception desk treats the phone system as integral to the workstation design — not an afterthought. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we recommend specifying the telephone position during desk selection: it should be within 12 inches of the dominant hand, at desk surface height, with cable routing pre-planned to keep the surface clear. VOIP systems are now the professional standard in commercial environments — they require only a network drop, which should be planned before desk delivery. For medical and legal reception environments with high call volume, a multi-line VOIP phone with headset integration is a specification we recommend consistently. Call us at 1-800-460-0858.
