Avistar announces availability of Avistar C3 through Fontel(Telecomworldwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Avistar Communications Corporation (Nasdaq: AVSR), a provider of visual communications solutions, announced on Wednesday (30 July) the availability of Avistar C3 desktop and team videoconferencing through Fontel Inc, a wholesale distributor of voice and data communications products, and its US network of dealers and resellers. The agreement is expected to allow Fontel's resellers to utilise a standards-based video conferencing solution to enhance their customers' business communication, improve operations and increase productivity and performance. The Avistar C3 bandwidth management enables thousands of users to access desktop videoconferencing, VoIP, collaboration services and streaming media without requiring new network investment or impairing network performance. The partnership opens a new distribution channel for Avistar, and offers Fontel customers a significant value-add to their current technology investment, Avistar said. The distributor agreement is understood to be an expansion of the two companies' partnership that began earlier in 2008 with Fontel supplying end-point device bundles (headsets, speakerphones, web cameras) for Avistar's C3 software. No financial details were disclosed. ((Comments on this story may be sent to [email protected])) Copyright ? 2008 M2 Communications Ltd. |
