Mitel, DeTeWe enhance business performance with wireless IP/DECT solution

Mitel Networks and DeTeWe collaborate on the delivery of wireless IP communications solutions to enterprises throughout Europe
Johannesburg, 28 Oct 2003

Mitel Networks has announced the extension of the mobility capabilities of its market-leading 3300 ICP IP Telephony platform. The 3300 already supports 802.11b wireless LAN mobility allowing for the creation of multiservice WIP hot spots integrating telephony along with PCs, peripherals and PDAs. Now via a strategic relationship with German-based DeTeWe, Mitel has announced the integration of DeTeWe industry-leading line of Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT)-based wireless solutions with Mitel Networks` award-winning IP communications platforms.

This co-development enables enterprises to increase workforce mobility and enjoy transparent connectivity and functionality to their wired desktop. With the announcement of this relationship, Mitel Networks fulfils a commitment to offer flexible, cost-effective, wireless voice and data networks to enterprises throughout Europe.

"The need for workforce mobility is proving to be one of the key drivers for enterprise IT spending, with companies looking to extend the reach of their network to improve customer service," said Andy Bull, director for Mitel Networks South Africa.

"Through working with a industry leader in mobility like DeTeWe, we can now enable users to enjoy full feature transparency between the wired and wireless worlds - enabling increased flexibility in how they work without sacrificing customer responsiveness."

In the new DECT over IP technology DeTeWe has, in addition, come up with complex mobility solutions for cordless telephony with high voice quality even in pure IP-networks.
