What does FMC mean for your customers?
FMC doesn’t just mean work from home; it means be heard from anywhere
Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) is one of the newest market offerings that allows companies to connect directly to almost any mobile phone. But how does it actually work?
In its simplest terms Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) is a bridge between fixed communications and mobile communications, two aspects that would usually never interact.
For the first time, with FMC you can connect (converge) a PBX or UC platform (the fixed aspect, it doesn’t go anywhere) to a mobile operator (the mobile aspect) directly through a SIM or eSIM.
FMC means convenience
FMC runs natively through the phone, it uses the phone’s dialler. Either insert the SIM card or scan the eSIM QR code, tap a link to log in and get calling.
FMC means mobility
FMC can truly work anywhere in the world. It goes where data doesn’t. This means that if you’re 10,000 miles from your desk or fixing the top of a wind turbine, FMC lets you take that call.
FMC means compliance
Even though FMC is fully integrated into a phone, it runs on an entirely isolated SIM. Stay fully compliant and in control.
FMC means cost saving
With FMC you can dramatically reduce how much hardware you need to buy, maintain and manage.
