Communicating with Multiple Sites ··· 95
Communicating with Multiple Sites
In Vocera, a
site
is a specific physical location where users can communicate
with each other. If your organization has multiple sites connected to the same
Vocera server, you can use your Vocera devices to communicate with users at
any site in your organization.
Note:
This chapter is relevant only if your installation supports multiple sites.
See your Vocera administrator to find out if your installation supports multiple
sites.
About Sites
If your installation supports multiple sites, you can communicate with other
users, groups, and address book entries at your local site as well as at any other
site. When you roam from site to site, the Vocera server knows which site you
are visiting and can direct calls to your device there.
Groups, locations, and address book entries at different sites can have the same
name. For example, each site can have its own "Code Blue" group, its own
"Cafeteria" location, and its own "The Local Pharmacy" address book entry.
Each site in your organization has a unique name. For example, you may have
site names such as New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, or even site names
such as Third Street or North Wing.
Types of Sites
Vocera distinguishes among different sites based on where you typically work
and where you are visiting:
• Your
home site
is the physical site where you typically work.
Other users, groups, and address book entries also have a home site.
• Your
current site
is the physical site you are currently visiting.
