Features
User Functions
- Make and receive Text Calls: Users can make and receive text calls as well as send and receive SMS, FAX and email messages using the TexBox Communicator application.
- Transfer Calls: Calls can be transferred to another user or department with the ability to add notes to the call (the equivalent of a voice warm transfer) and with details of the full conversation being transferred.
- Reject Calls: Calls can be rejected automatically after a configurable message is displayed.
- Voice Carry Over: This feature allows users to speak during a text conversation. This feature can be useful for callers that can speak but are deaf, and wish to speak their side of the conversation rather than using text.
- Internal Calls: Companies with deaf or hard hearing workers can use this feature to allow them to make calls to other colleagues and then to hold a live-text conversation with them.
- Save Conversations: Text conversations can be saved in local machines.
Caller Services
- Interactive Text Response: An Interactive Text Response (ITR) system is available to callers, giving similar functionality to an Interactive Voice Response system.
- Direct Dial (DDI): Direct dial to specified users/groups/departments.
- Predefined Messages: Comfort messages can be sent to callers whilst calls are waiting to be answered.
- Answer Machine: Text answer machine facilities available so that callers can leave a message if the service or users are not available.
Deployment
- Tele-working: Users are not tied to a physical textphone and therefore more flexibility is provided for user deployment allowing for “virtual” working.
- Security: Text telephony services do not use an external Internet connection, therefore, there is no outside access to the corporate network.
- Compatibility: V.18 modem technology allows users to communicate with virtually all existing textphones.
Telephone Network Interface
- ISDN30: Supports from 8 to 30 ISDN channels.
