Hauppauge, N.Y. –
(Personal Communications Devices)
teamed up with Axesstel to launch a wireline-replacement device that connects
home and business phones to Sprint’s cellular network and delivers unlimited
local and long-distance domestic calling for $19.99/month.
The device,
manufactured by Axesstel and distributed by PCD, is available for free at
Sprint Stores, online at
,
Sprint’s telesales operation, Sprint’s business channel, and select third-party
dealers with a two-year service agreement on the $19.99 per month, excluding
taxes and surcharges.
The fixed-wireless
voice terminal is compatible with most conventional corded and cordless phones,
PCD said. If a cordless phone supports more than one handset, users need only
plug the phone’s main base station into the terminal to connect all cordless
handsets to the Sprint network. Digital phones for use with PBX systems,
however, might not be compatible.
Users can keep
their existing home or office phone number or activate a new one. Service
charges can be added to a user’s existing Sprint cellular bill.
Features include
800/1900MHz CDMA operation, caller ID, call holding, three-way calling, two
RJ-11 ports to support two corded phones, voicemail notification and
assisted-GPS/911 location.
