Motorola Selling Voice-over-Wireless-LAN Solution
Motorola’s Enterprise Mobility business will enable mobile enterprise
with its Total Enterprise Access and Mobility (TEAM) integrated voice
and data portfolio – the TEAM voice-over-wireless-LAN (VoWLAN) solution.
It’s available in North America. Global availability is planned for
2009.
According to the company, Motorola's TEAM solution takes VoWLAN beyond
voice with mobile email, calendar/contact sync, text messaging,
Internet/intranet access, and the flexibility of Windows Mobile 6.1 for
line of business applications. In addition to offering toll-quality
telephony services integrated with the PBX and enterprise-grade
push-to-talk (PTT), the TEAM solution can also interoperate with
existing two-way radio systems.
The
TEAM solution can be integrated into existing WLAN and PBX
infrastructure, creating a single common platform for the delivery of
integrated voice and data services. The complete TEAM solution includes
two servers, the Wireless Services Manager (WSM) and Network Services
Manager (NSM), and Windows Mobile VoWLAN smartphones.
The WSM
provides PTT services, text messaging, PBX interoperability, as well as
enhancements to battery life, mobility and security. The NSM provides
centralized provisioning and management. The design of this solution can
scale from a handful to up to 4,500 users, and will incorporate future
TEAM solution capabilities, including dual-mode (VoWLAN and cellular)
and the extension of services to other voice-capable Motorola devices,
including mobile computers and bar code scanners.
The
TEAM solution interoperates with WLAN infrastructure from leading
vendors and the initial release supports selected IP and TDM PBXs from
several market players, says the company.
