Cellex4's Cellular Gateway to Extend Mobility to SMBs

Cellex4's Cellular Gateway to Extend Mobility to SMBs

By Michael Guta

In today's business environment, organizations must possess multiple communication options to ensure that they stay connected to their customers at all times. In the past the only option was the traditional telephone company land line. Today we have Voice over IP (VoIP) and cellular gateways, which make it possible to choose where telephone calls can go. Clearly, having the option of redirecting a phone call to a business is an invaluable asset when an emergency takes place. Although large enterprises have the resources for such contingency controls, small and medium-sized businesses (SMB's) oftentimes didn't have the means for quick disaster recovery. The CELLX4, however, provides SMB's with an affordable disaster recovery option, reducing costs and extending mobility.

TELES Communications Corp., the makers of CELLX4 and Personal Communication Devices (PCD), have entered into an agreement to provide cellular gateways in the North American market. The agreement and distribution deals are between CELLX4, PCD and Sprint.

The CELLX4 cellular gateway devices convert calls from fixed networks into mobile to mobile calls. This technology not only provides temporary voice service where land lines don't exist, but it is also an alternative solution for reducing costs for wireless minutes.

Organizations that have both field-based and fleet employees can use a single number to access their cell phones from a central PBX. It is also possible to secure prior authorization to access the nationwide Wireless Priority Service if there is a local or national emergency.

"This gateway technology benefits small and medium-size organizations, by protecting their investment in existing infrastructure, by ensuring their access to communications, and by significantly reducing their telecom costs. We are excited about providing this innovative service throughout North America. As we expand in the United States, our partners of choice are PCD, with its established distribution team, and Sprint, a leading U.S. carrier," said Oliver Olbrich, president of TELES Communications Corp.

CELLX4 is available through Sprint in the US for $34.99 per month for unlimited service and for $9.99 per month for disaster (failover) service.

TELES Communications Corp. provides communications solutions for more than 300 carriers and business customers around the world. It provides fixed network substitutes, network infrastructure and network interconnection solutions.
