Nortel has announced the expansion of its relationship with Microsoft through integrated technology solutions designed to help simplify the way businesses communicate worldwide. This latest initiative between the two companies was forged to provide collaborative realtime capabilities for businesses via integration of Microsoft Office Communicator 2005 and Office Live Communication Server with Nortel's open, SIP-based communications solution.
End users will be able to exploit the PC-based Microsoft Office Communicator client in concert with a Mortel desktop phone for business communications. Users can then determine when colleagues are available and employ an integrated instant messaging (IM) capability, all from the Communicator client interface.
In addition, Nortel introduced new and enhanced IP multimedia solutions designed to improve employee productivity across the "virtual workplace." These new solutions include, but are not limited to: Nortel IP Phone 1100 Series: Nortel WLAN Handset 2212; Multimedia Communications Server (MCS) 5100 Release 3.5; CallPilot Release 4.0 Unified Messaging suite; and Communications Server 1000 Release 4.5.
