Jabra, hands-free audio solutions provider, and Siemens Enterprise Communications, a global provider of unified communications (UC), have joined forces to improve mobile UC.
The latest Jabra Bluetooth headset will support Siemens Enterprise Communications' OpenScape Mobile Call Swipe feature, they revealed, making it easier and faster for users to seamlessly switch from one device to another without losing connection or switching headsets.
The OpenScape Mobile Call Swipe feature allows the user, with a simple swipe, to move their voice conversations from an office phone or laptop to a mobile device and back again, making the user truly mobile.
Through this strategic partnership, Jabra and Siemens Enterprise Communications have collaborated to integrate Jabra headsets and mobile devices into the OpenScape platform so customers can be sure that their unified communication solution delivers the optimal sound quality, offers the opportunity for a faster user adoption and easier deployment.
Holger Reisinger, Jabra VP of Marketing, Products and Alliances, said: "Breakthroughs in the league of OpenScape Call Swipe are not something we see every day, even in this innovative and high-tech industry.
"OpenScape Call Swipe is one of the few features we have seen appear in recent years, which is solving a longstanding, low-tech challenge for mobile workers, moving from the office to the car without having to interrupt the call to change device. Call Swipe deserves to become industry standard."
Randy Roberts, VP, Mobile Portfolio, Siemens Enterprise Communications, commented: "This collaboration with Jabra provides customers an excellent headset option for superior audio quality and connections when using OpenScape Mobile.
"For both audio-only and video enabled communications, OpenScape Mobile and Jabra make it easy for users to enjoy true mobility."
