The Open Interfaces Platform (OIP) forms the interface between the communication server and the applications (both own and from third-party suppliers) and guarantees a seamless integration of CTI applications.

It permits deep integration of the applications with the telephony. Thus the user can benefit from an overall convergent system (telephony and IT systems).

The Open Interfaces Platform (OIP) is a software component that is linked to the Aastra communication server* as "PC middleware" and which permits the connection of applications.

These are either connected directly to the OIP interface (CORBA) or to the OIP TAPI service provider. As part of the process, the applications access a whole range of high performance functions of the Aastra communication system and the OIP. These value-added services facilitate considerably more efficient workflows for the user.

In addition to the telephony functions, with OIP the applications are provided with many additional performance characteristics.

The operation and administration of the OIP and its applications is simple and convenient thanks to the use of the OIP Toolbox.

*Compatible with Aastra 800, IntelliGate as well as OpenCom 100/100 Systems.
