iDockIt™ Software Supports Additional Device Platforms
Connection utility enables leading device
manufacturers a standard solution
for ethernet, modem and local host communication
July 31, 2007
The value of the features iDockIt offers are evident for the users of over 300,000 licensed devices already deployed. The utility eliminates some of the configuration guesswork and application modifications often encountered when implementing a mobility solution. Specifically, the iDockIt software utility can manage multiple communication options – including instructing the mobile device on how to handle a mix of wired and wireless connections at the same time. It can also disconnect wireless synchronization when a wired communication option such as ethernet is available and can auto-detect different connection types (network, modem, USB, serial) and perform specific actions based on the connection type it identifies. iDockIt is a standard utility for connectivity, as opposed to “home-grown” or application specific connectivity alternatives, making it easier for mobility solution providers and manufacturers to troubleshoot.
A key component of
enterprise mobility
For validated device platforms, iDockIt
is tested with cradles and accessories provided by the device manufacturer, but
also with third party ethernet and modem adapters (which can convert a USB or
serial connection to the preferred network connection) that are gaining
interest in the enterprise market and are viewed as an alternative to cradles
with network connectivity built in for certain solutions. iDockIt is designed to be a key component to
help customers deploy a connected solution – regardless of connection type or
the form of connection, whether a cradle, cable, or a third party adapter.
