Hochschulrechenzentrum
HRZ is your contact for telephony at TU Darmstadt. We are the right address for you if, for example, you want to apply for a new telephone, your entry in the TU-wide telephone directory needs to be changed or you have questions about the Jabber client. We differentiate between communication in the office with fixed end devices and mobile communication via Jabber.
Prior to the planned introduction of Unified Communications (UC) at TU Darmstadt, only software telephones (softphones) will be used from now on when moving into new or complete refurbished builings. These will replace the desk telephones that have been used until now.
The Jabber client is used as the softphone solution. Hardware telephones (classic desk telephones) are no longer provided for employee workstations.
Necessary “function telephones” – where they are required by law (e.g. in first-aid rooms) – will continue to be provided.
