VoIP for Production Field production has changed a lot in recent years, yet one thing seems to be mired in the old way of doing things: production communication from the remote site back to the studio and other locations still relies heavily upon dial-up phone lines. In this era of extreme sports, vnues are becoming more remote, installation costs rising, and the amount of coordination required to get a line installed and numbers distributed is labor intensive.
Agiosat has a better way to ensure fast, easy and cost-effective production communication by using Voice over IP (VoIP) through its satellite network, thereby eliminating installation hassles and coordination issues. Here are some key benefits:
- No on-site installation: With a 1.2 meter, auto-deploy satellite antenna, you need only press 2 buttons to establish full connectivity within 3 minutes.
- Plenty of Capacity: Agiosat can support up to 100 simultaneous calls and/or faxes at a single location using a single 1.2 meter antenna.
- Cost-Effective: The system is inexpensive to install, and takes up just 6 rack units. On-network calls are free no matter the duration or number of calls, and calls outside the network are just pennies a minute.
- Convenient: You can configure the system so that each position has its own 4-digit phone number. For example, the Producer Position in Unit 1 can always have the same 4-digit number. Or if you prefer, the phone number can move with the phone. This means that John Smith can be reached at the same number regardless of which remote unit he is assigned.
