Alcatel and Nokia have announced a collaboration which extends Alcatel's business telephony offering to the mobile workforce by way of the Nokia E Series mobile phones. The Intellisync Call Connect for Alcatel, is a Nokia offering designed to integrate Nokia Eseries devices into the Alcatel IP Communication server.
With this solution, popular desk phone functionalities are available to the mobile user. For example, employees manage just one business number, and control where and when and on which device they receive their calls. Additionally, the benefits of the office phone, such as call conferencing, call back, and dial by name are delivered with the ease of use of Nokia Eseries, within the enterprise environment.
"Together with Alcatel, Nokia has a great opportunity to expand the adoption of converged mobility solutions," said Scott Cooper, Vice President, Mobility Solutions, Nokia. "While enterprise voice solutions from Nokia are designed to work with leading enterprise communications solutions, the introduction of the new solution that integrates Nokia Eseries with the Alcatel OmniPCX is a significant milestone for us. Alcatel and Nokia are at the forefront in bringing solutions to the mobile marketplace that help overcome the barrier between fixed and mobile communications, thus making business communications more efficient both in and out the office."
The solution will be available during the fourth quarter of 2006 through Alcatel and Nokia resellers."
