TEMPE, Ariz., April 23 -- Inter-Tel (Delaware), Incorporated (NASDAQ:INTL), a leading provider of voice and data communications for businesses, has announced the release of the newest version of software for its Axxess(R) Converged Communications System. Axxess v10.0 expands the system's networking capacity from the previous limit of 63 nodes to 99 nodes and adds caller-ID and routing announcement enhancements to the platform. This expansion may be critical in large deployments, and opens new opportunities within organizations that are highly distributed, such as retail chains that require seamless connectivity for multiple locations to function as one entity.
"The flexibility provided by this latest software gives customers more options to boost the capacity of their existing system and expand their communications capabilities with new applications as their business grows," said Craig W.
