SIS, a joint venture in Malta between Siemens and Midi, has launched a series of innovative services suitable for the residential and business market of Tigné Point and Manoel Island.

These services include building technologies such as convenient Access Control Systems, environment-friendly and energy-efficient centralised heating and air-conditioning systems and Smart-Card Services aimed at providing higher standards of comfort to the residents of Tigné Point.

In addition, SIS is a fully licensed telephony and Internet Service Provider and will be offering fully digital IP telephony and data services under the brand name SISCOM.

SIS is in a position to bring next-generation telephony services to the market, thanks to its fully digital IP-based telephone exchange or ‘soft-switch’ provided by Siemens, a global leader in telecommunications equipment, and a fully developed fibre-optic network throughout Tigne Point and Manoel Island, enabling data transmissions of up to 100Mbit/s.

SIS is the first telecom provider in Malta to offer a virtual PBX service, referred to as CENTREX, to its telephony customers. SIS Centrex provides a flexible, cost-effective and hassle-free PBX-like service, without the need for any switching equipment on the customer premise as the service is supplied and managed directly from SIS’s exchange site, with lines being delivered to the premises over fibre optic.

The SIS CENTREX Service bundle includes additional services like conference calling, automated attendant and voicemail, and is fully customisable to suit businesses of any size. Among the major benefits of this service is the fact that no capital investment in equipment is required, labour, maintenance and running costs become obsolete as SIS continually upgrades the system.

SIS also offers state-of-the-art desktop video-conferencing services that permit simultaneous video communication with multiple participants and document sharing, improving communication with suppliers and customers and reducing response times on urgent queries.

Other services include voicemail to e-mail and fax to e-mail conversion services for a more organised workplace, video telephony and SMS service, as well as portability of telephone sets to multiple locations, and the possibility of making free phone calls from overseas to the office using the SIS Centrex Service.
