Page 2 of 2 The individual components are integrated with each other and with the Vodafone network so that, when an employee's fixed number is called both mobile and deskphone ring and the call can be answered from either. If that person is in the office the call routes as a fixed call via the IP PBX, if outside as a call to a mobile on the Vodafone network. When the Blackberry is used to make a call from within the office it that cal routes via WiFi and the IP PBX and displays the caller's fixed line number to the called party. A single voicemail box services both fixed and mobile numbers. Vodafone has not revealed pricing but said it would be similar to its Business Cap mobile plans which offer a high value of call minutes for a much smaller set monthly fee, generally on 24 month contracts. The service makes use of the BlackBerry Mobile Voice System (BlackBerry MVS); small business software which extends desk phone functionality including hold, transfer, conference and extension dialling, to BlackBerry smartphones, launched a year ago.
