SKIDATA and STENTOFON announce their partnership

STENTOFON is happy to announce the partnership with SKIDATA to deliver the optimal experience to users, clients, integrators and partners in the Parking industry. The STENTOFON audio communication solutions are used in SKIDATA parking devices for bidirectional communication between operators and their customers.

“We are truly proud to announce this partnership. Over the last 2 years STENTOFON and SKIDATA have been working very hard on this pioneering solution. It is with great pride we can finally announce the solution and partnership,” says Kenneth Dastol, CEO, Zenitel.

“The combination of STENTOFONs 65 years of experience in the audio communication industry and the market leading solutions from SKIDATA is great news. The intercom systems in our entry and exit gates and automated payment machines offer a great help desk for our customers in the parking industry,” says Robert Weiskopf, Senior Vice President “Car Access", SKIDATA.

SKIDATA now provides flexibility to choose a real VoIP-Intercom Environment with all its advantages. The solution offers hardware- and server-less Intercom communication as an integrated part of SKIDATA’s widely spread parking solutions.

The operator can now opt for a parking solution which is tailor-made for Voice over IP (VoIP) communication based on the STENTOFON Pulse™ framework and also integrates the latest generation of high definition IP Turbine™ family stations.

The combination of these systems with the SKIDATA solution leads to an outstanding audio quality, advanced functionality and security.

In addition the Pulse™ framework enables connection to iPBXes from all major providers, as well as totally integrated project-solutions using the Alphacom™ family of audio servers. This will provide SKIDATA’s customers a future option to integrate an existing communication server in their parking solution.

SKIDATA customers have as advantage flexibility in choosing and designing a communication solution tailored to their needs. This agreement will broaden the impact of STENTOFON equipment, opening up possibilities for integration and value-adding services for existing and future partners of both companies.
