Softbank to launch White Office service for corporate use

ntttttttttttt

Softbank Mobile Corp and Softbank Telecom will launch White Office around the end of March, a fixed mobile convergence (FMC) service that enables corporate customers to use Softbank handsets as an extension of fixed-line telephones and handles calls between mobile handsets as well as between mobile and fixed-line as extension-to-extension calls regardless being outside or in the office. Key functions of conventional extension are available on mobile as well such as calling extension number display, hold and call forwarding, which renders a feeling of having an omni-office.

In addition, White Office can be introduced for use by mere change of the setting of a private branch exchange (PBX) in current use without spending big additional capital expenditure. Flat rate for extension calls is planned to be offered for introduction and use at ease, Softbank said.
