Communication Networks (30 ComNet) has been selected by the 4427 Talk-A-Phone Company to supply fibre optic media converters and EoVDSL modems (Ethernet over Very High Digital Subscriber Link) for use with their line of VOIP-500 Series of Voice-over-IP phones. Talk-A-Phone will now recommend the use of ComNet USA-manufactured EoVDSL and fiber optic media converter products to their customers for use with their IP-based products.

“The outcome of the interoperability testing has been very positive,” said Clarence Wong, product manager, Talk-A-Phone Co. “Leveraging solutions from both ComNet and Talk-A-Phone offers customers robust performance and reliability.”

US-headquartered Talk-A-Phone’s mass notification and emergency communications solutions are widely used at college and corporate campuses, parking facilities, hospitals and mass-transit locations worldwide.

“By selecting ComNet, Talk-A-Phone will now be able to provide their customers with an easily implemented and reliable solution to extend the transmission distances of its products through fibre optic, coaxial cable, and twisted copper media,” said ComNet’s Bruce M. Berman. “As this Talk-A-Phone VOIP product utilises Ethernet for local and wide area network transmission, methods to extend transmission distances through legacy and newly deployed transmission media become a necessity.”
