By TechTaffy Desk

Jabra has joined the Microsoft Lync Hosted Pack Reference Architecture Partner Ecosystem.

Holger Reisinger (Vice President of Marketing, Products and Alliances, Jabra): The ‘last three feet’ between the computer hardware and users, bridged by headsets or speakerphones, is the single most important factor for successful deployment and adoption of the technology and completes the UC experience.

Microsoft Lync Server 2010 Multitenant Pack for Partner Hosting is a UC hosting solution for telecom and hosting providers.

As a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner since 2007, Jabra launched its first optimized headset devices for Microsoft Office Communicator that same year.
