Hochschulrechenzentrum
The University Computing Centre is your contact for voice communication via landline numbers at TU Darmstadt and operates the necessary infrastructure. We are the right place for you if, for example, you want to apply for a new business landline, change your entry in the TU-wide telephone directory or if you have questions about the Jabber client.
In January 2025, the campus-wide HRZ project UC changeover (unified communication changeover) was started.
Goal:
The existing heterogeneous telecommunications system at TU Darmstadt will be replaced by a modern, IP-based unified communication solution.
Further information and details can be found on our regularly updated website.
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.
