What is TexBox?

TexBox is a text telephone system which connects hard of hearing, deaf or speech impaired customers who use textphones (also known as minicoms), to almost anyone in your organisation. One system will eliminate the need for textphones throughout your organisation by utilizing already networked PC's on an internal computer network (LAN or WAN), where the textphone call is routed via the network to a relevant agent’s PC.

As with a voice telephone system, TexBox offers the textphone user direct one to one private communication, with the option to be transferred to any department throughout an organisation.
