SAN ANTONIO, May 4 /PRNewswire/ -- DATA RACE (Nasdaq: RACE) announced today that its Be There! Remote Access System has completed testing in Siemens Business Communications' Siemens Ready(SM) developer support program for seamless operation with the company's Hicom 300 E and ROLM 9751 communications servers. Be There! is the most versatile and interoperable remote access voice and data system on the market, integrating seamlessly with most major PBX's.
The Siemens Ready testing was managed by Siemens and conducted at the Siemens lab in Santa Clara, California. The testing verified that the Be There! Remote Access System version 1.10 can be used with Siemens' Hicom 300 E version 90006.4 and ROLM CBX 9751 version 9005.6.83 communications servers. Only those products that meet Siemens' standards for telephony interoperability may display the Siemens Ready Logo.
"Today's businesses depend on a myriad of voice, data and fax services," said Kenneth Witt, marketing director for the Be There! product. "The remarkable interoperability offered by Be There! assures our customers that the system will leverage their existing infrastructure investment, and will grow with it. Be There! is the right choice for today's remote workers, and will continue to be the right choice as the voice and data networks expand and change."
"With the Siemens Ready verification, customers can now have an added level of confidence that their Be There! system will perform well with Siemens' PBX systems," said Rich Passabet, product manager for the Siemens Ready Program.
