Telephone Systems Implementation of small to large Guardian Telecom Industrial PABX Telephone Systems allows internal and external communication via traditional telephone networks and VoIP protocol. Guardian Telecom designs, manufactures, supplies and commissions Telephone Systems for use in uncompromising industrial environments. Our telephone systems are created with specific end-user requirements for quantity of external trunk lines: CO, E1/ T1 or VoIP and internal extensions: Analog (POTS), Digital (proprietary) or VoIP (SIP). Voice mail packages and battery back-up are only a few of the additional features available to make any telephone system complete in today s demanding industrial world. With the addition of full featured OEM digital phone sets & cordless phone subsystems plus Guardian Telecom s own full-line of industrial telephones which include weather resistant, watertight, ruggedized industrial and explosion proof models, client demands are met or exceeded with Guardian turnkey PABX phone system solutions. Internal telephones are connected within a business telephone network using a PABX which also connects them to a (PSTN) public switched telephone network, VoIP providers and SIP trunks. Optional handheld VHF or UHF or radio transceivers [walkie/ talkies] with central base station can carry paging and communication (including telephony link) beyond conventionally wired system components for further flexibility and penetration into a facility for added safety and emergency response. Guardian has the ability to create custom solutions beyond the standard off the shelf system which doesn t always meet the exacting specifications and flexibility that most projects demand. 1

Getting Started In our experience no two Communication Systems will be exactly the same and trying to force fit an off the shelf system to meet the actual needs of a user can limit its effectiveness of required functionality. For optimum results we find it is important to work hand in hand with our clients to analyze their needs, project parameters and discuss the options that are available to meet them. There are many questions that may need to be considered when developing a successful communication system such as: What are the environmental and regulatory factors that the site presents? What is the proposed schedule? Is there an existing system? Is there a need for a sound study or other on- site inspections? Are there plans for expansion? Contact Guardian and we will address any questions you have on your communication system without any kind of obligation.
