The new voice server has native support for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), Communications Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communicator (part of the 2007 Microsoft Office system). It will interoperate with products from industry partners including Nortel Networks, Alcatel-Lucent, Avaya, Cisco, LG-Nortel., Mitel., NEC Philips Unified Solutions, Polycom and Siemens Communications. The servier also allows workers to launch a phone call from 2007 Microsoft Office applications by clicking on a name.

Microsoft is also hosting a Technology Adoption Program (TAP) Summit this week in conjunction with the beta.
