Polycom uses an Open Application Interface (OAI) that enables third-party applications to send and respond to real-time text messages and alerts using Polycom SpectraLink® Wireless Telephones. Applications are developed using the OAI protocol interface with the wireless telephone system through the OAI Gateway. This unique two-way functionality enables mobile users to rapidly respond to non-voice messages, thereby reducing decision-making time and increasing productivity throughout the workplace.
OAI is a messaging protocol interface that is open to any developer. Polycom offers a developer package that provides the necessary information to integrate applications with SpectraLink Wireless Telephones.
Polycom verifies documentation and interoperability with applications developed using the OAI protocol through the SpectraLink Certified Messaging Application (SCMA) program. For a list of SCMA providers or to obtain information on how to become an SCMA provider, see SCMA Certification.
Compatibility testing is a formal process through which a vendor's support documentation and interoperability are verified to help ensure that OAI messaging applications interface seamlessly with SpectraLink products.
The following developers have earned SCMA designation and have the capability to address your integration needs. Polycom's two-way, real-time text messaging capability integrates with the most advanced nurse call system interfaces in the industry.
