TANDBERG has introduced the TANDBERG Video Communication Server, a multi-application network device that includes FindMe, a new call forwarding application that personalises and unifies business communications. The product also claims to deliver call control and firewall traversal applications that now support Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) in addition to H.323.

According to the release, FindMe better enables users to control how and where they are contacted through a simple administrative profile. Users can have their calls forwarded to multiple devices and choose where the call goes if there is no answer or they are busy.  This allows callers to dial one number to find a person, not separate devices or separate numbers, bringing a higher level of personalisation and usability to video communications.

“Faced with an increasing number and type of communication devices, the TANDBERG Video Communication Server helps companies ensure that its employees can seamlessly reach each other regardless of location or communication device in use,” said Fredrik Halvorsen, TANDBERG chief executive officer.  “It’s about reaching the person, not the device.”

In addition to FindMe, the TANDBERG Video Communication Server features TANDBERG Control and Expressway applications—extending call control and firewall traversal functionality to the SIP world.
