Case Study: Bleu Blanc Rouge achieves fast, scalable Mac-compatible PoE IP telephony with Mitel (Aastra 480i/480i CT)

Bleu Blanc Rouge - Customer Case Study

Bleu Blanc Rouge is a Montreal-based communications and marketing agency serving clients like Lexus, Laurentian Bank and Burger King. Rapid growth from 40 to over 60 employees and a move to larger offices required a new IP telephone system that was Macintosh-compatible, used IP equipment and supported Power over Ethernet (PoE).

They deployed Aastra 480i and 480i CT IP phones integrated with an outsourced IP system, providing an elegant, functional solution that met design and technical needs. The rollout delivered easy scaling (add phones with no additional infrastructure costs), PoE support, sub-five-minute, technician-free configuration, and a cordless handset option for the receptionist—improving mobility and operational efficiency.
