IBM Sametime Unified Telephony

Telephony features for users and multi-PBX telephony integration for telephony managers

IBM Sametime® Unified Telephony software integrates telecommunications into your existing unified communications (UC) and collaboration environment so people can easily use cost-effective telephony features. Sametime Unified Telephony software provides people a full set of telephony capabilities, including telephony presence information, incoming call management and more. It also masks the complexity of back-end integration with a middleware layer that provides connectivity to multiple telephone systems.

The new IBM Sametime Unified Telephony Lite Client software provides telephony managers an excellent entry point into UC with minimal requirements beyond your existing Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) infrastructure. By turning the Sametime Connect client into a standards-based SIP softphone, the software allows people to place and receive calls to external phone numbers, video conferencing systems or video conferencing endpoints—all from their desktop.
