Welcome to Vocera
Your Vocera badge or phone provides fast, simple, person-to-person
communication over your company's wireless network. You don't need to
memorize a number, and you don't need to page someone and wait for a
response. Using voice commands, Vocera instantly connects you to the people
you need to reach, reducing phone tag, overhead paging, and physically
searching for a person. It also gives you the freedom to be mobile, even when
you are expecting an important call.
The Vocera badge has a built-in speaker, microphone, and radio, plus a display
that shows caller ID and messages. Attachment options for the badge allow
hands-free operation.
The Vocera T1000 phone provides the one-touch, instant communication
capability of the Vocera badge in a familiar phone form factor. With the T1000,
users have the additional flexibility to use keypad dialing if necessary.
Vocera devices communicate through your in-house wireless local area network
(WLAN). This design permits people to reach you even in areas where cellular
phones experience what people call dead spots. Also, since Vocera devices
transmit and receive calls in a different frequency range than cellular phones,
you can use a Vocera devices in areas where cellular phones are prohibited
because of concerns about interference with other equipment.
A central computer, the Vocera Server, controls all Vocera device
communications. If you have a Vocera phone, it communicates with the Vocera
Server through a separate Vocera Client Gateway. As you use your Vocera
badge or phone, you are prompted by the Genie, which is the voice interface
to the server. The Genie recognizes simple commands in verb-noun format. For
example:
"Call Charles Jones."
"Record a message for Tech Support."
"Block all calls."
