Crew Calling Gateway

The optional Crew Calling Gateway (KVH part no. 72-0349) adds four
additional phone lines for crew members and charter passengers to
place ship-to-shore calls using prepaid calling cards. Since the ICM
also provides two main voice lines, the TracPhone V7-HTS may
support up to six simultaneous voice calls with the Crew Calling
Gateway installed. To support multiple concurrent calls, your service
plan must accommodate the minimum data rate required
(bidirectional) to support the total number of calls:
• 1 or 2 concurrent calls - 128 kbps
• 3 or 4 concurrent calls - 256 kbps
• 5 or 6 concurrent calls - 512 kbps
Contact your dealer/distributor for details.
NOTE: As an alternative to the external Crew Calling Gateway, one of the
ICM's built-in phone lines can be configured for Crew Calling functionality
(KVH part no. 95-0036-1008). Contact KVH Network Services at
networkservices@kvh.com for details.
