Multi-Tech Announces Cellular Bridge to PBXs and Key Systems



New CallFinder® CDMA Routes Cellular Wireless Calls Through Phone Systems

MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 19 /- With cellular phones being a necessity in most businesses, it is common for employees to use them to call each other at no charge depending on the cell plan used. It is just as common for headquarters personnel to make and receive calls to those same cell phones using the PSTN at considerable charges both ways. A new Multi-Tech CallFinder® CDMA cellular gateway connected to a company's PBX and CDMA network can turn those expensive headquarter calls into no-charge calls.

The newly announced CallFinder CDMA cellular gateway from Multi-Tech® Systems, Inc., a leading data communications and telecommunications technology company based in suburban Minneapolis, enables businesses to take advantage of lower cost wireless networks by allowing calls between cellular phones and headquarters to use wireless networks instead of land lines. By connecting to a PBX trunk line or PBX extension and routing incoming and outgoing calls through a CDMA wireless network, the CallFinder CDMA Model CF100FX2-C will not only save on telecommunications cost but can also add functionality and efficiency.

"Besides providing toll-free calling between headquarters and cell phones in the field, the CallFinder CDMA can also provide back-up communications including emergency 911 service in the event of central office PSTN failure," states Chip Harleman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. "The CallFinder CDMA can also connect to an analog phone to serve as the primary voice network for small remote offices or other locations that do not have a land line infrastructure or where having lines installed is too costly for temporary use. And, in any of these examples, if more than one line is needed, multiple CallFinders can be utilized. The CallFinder CDMA can bring both cost savings and communications security to businesses of any size."

The CallFinder CDMA cellular gateway (model CF100FX2-C) connects to a PBX trunk line, PBX extension line, or a single PSTN line and routes incoming and outgoing calls through a CDMA wireless network. Equipped with programmable FXS/FXO interface , the gateway includes dual-band GSM 800/1900 MHz CDMA technology, voice features with EZVRC, 13KQCELP and AMPS capabilities, SMA antenna connector, LED operational indicators, AT command set compatibility, CDG 1 and 2 network certified, and a two-year warranty.
