Telephone, Fax & Data Systems
This wireless telephone system is for internet, broadband and voice through one box! With any number of users!
We have sold many of these systems to Italy, Malta, Western Australia, and fishing boats and private vessels... so we know it works.
This means you can attach three normal telephones or even a cordless phone system base station AND you can have any number of laptops connected using WiFi. If you add a long range antenna you may well improve the communications for telephone and data.
Outside of Australia you can include a signal booster to provide optimum range and signal quality.
Mining sites and remote locations can now have a quality multi-user telephone system AND multi-user internet access. Boats can offer wireless internet and cordless phones to both crew and customers on board without even running any wires. Calls can be received at any extension on a normal mobile "telephone" number. This is the same for mining sites.
The system is suitable for Optus, Vodaphone and Telstra services, however a Telstra Next G service will provide the greatest range and coverage in remote areas.
You can even connect a network printer to the unit.
Works with any SIM Card. GSM, CDMA, 3G & Next G
Up to 100km range with high gain antennae on Next G
Up to full 35km range for GSM communications

Scenario1: You have a large charter boat operating along the coast and wish to place a standard telephone in each of the guest cabins. Guests will be able to make telephone calls like they do at home. The boat will be able to send and receive faxes. Kids can use the internet.
Scenario 2: You have a cruiser going between the various Whitsunday Islands. You wish to have a standard phone on the enclosed flybridge, in the master cabin and also in your "on board" office. The inboard office needs fax and an economical full time broadband internet connection. Its possible you will travel up to 100miles from land.
Scenario 3: Any of the above for a remote land getaway house or mining site where installing a landline is impractical. Multiple extensions and multiple WiFi connections to the internet are possible.

System Overview:
The system is actually a small box with an integrated antenna, USB Port and standard telephone extension port. Also inside the system box is the electronics of an independent mobile telephone. All systems are capable of providing mobile telephone, fax and untimed data communications depending on the service provider which includes Telstra, Optus, Vodaphone and 3.
Normal household telephone handsets are connected to the system box allowing a boat (or other location) to be equipped with several normal telephones throughout. Just as you have telephone extensions in your home, you can now have telephone extensions throughout your boat.
This system will work WORLDWIDE!
In operation, the user simply lifts a normal telephone handset, listens for the dial tone and dials the number. Incoming calls are announced like a normal ringing household telephone.
The user can plug their laptop into the system box data port (or an extension cable leading to the data port on the system box) to make untimed and/or unlimited download data calls. PC Fax or normal fax machines can also be connected to the system box.
It is important to understand that the system box can be remotely located and standard telephone extension cables are run to it. Its is essentially exactly the same in wiring connections as a normal household telephone system. Telephone cable is run to the various telephone extensions. Think of the telephone system as being similar to the Telstra junction box on the side of your house.
The maximum distance for a GSM service is limited by the telco exchange to 35km. Choose a 3G or Next G service for greater range.
An optional 5db or 9db high gain antenna is available for and will increase the range. This antenna is suitable for domestic applications too. For operations outside of Australian waters, a signal booster is available.*
In summary, this system box allows boat (and other) users the flexibility to have full time inexpensive business or private telephone communications operating on their boat, from multiple handsets up to 100km from the nearest base station.
In many cases these systems can reduce the continuous requirement for expensive satellite communications.
* Signal boosters are an EXPORT ONLY item.
