SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ShoreTel® mobility software and cordless IP phones will be used track side for the first time by the Williams F1® Team during the 2013 Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in Austin, taking place Nov. 15-17. The roll-out of ShoreTel unified communications (UC) for Williams is ongoing and this race marks the debut of full deployment of ShoreTel mobility and UC solutions at the track. ShoreTel is providing connectivity between Williams' global headquarters and factory in the UK with the race team, including the pit crew, logistics experts and key personnel at Grand Prix circuits.

ShoreTel (NASDAQ: SHOR), the leading provider of brilliantly simple phone systems and unified communications solutions, is an Official Supplier for the UK-based Williams F1 Team from June 28, 2013 through December 2014.
