SOHO ROUTER: Overview
SOHO generally encompasses the set up and management of a computer-working environment on a small scale. The advent of the personal computer, and breakthroughs in voice and data communication, created opportunities for office workers to decentralize resulting in benefits to employers, in lower overhead, and in many cases, greater productivity. Small scale typically means the category of business which can be from 1 to 10 workers, with the major areas of concern being: • Getting connected; • Networking your computers; • Security;

A range of products are often designed specifically for the "SOHO" market. These include Photo copiers and Fax machines, Intercoms and PBXs, telephone Handsets etc.
