Why?

Rapid restoration of telecoms is a major priority in any crisis situation where telephone links have been disrupted. It is vital they are restored with the minimum delay.

How does it work?

Incoming phone calls are instantly redirected to a new location, anywhere in the UK:

1. Single numbers can be redirected using any tone phone or mobile, or even by anyone with PIN authority sending an SMS Text Message to FleXtel's SMS gateway dedicated for this purpose.
2. More advanced multi-number rerouting can be effected via secure internet access using 128bit SSL protocol (banking level) with master passwords of between 6 and 40 alphanumeric characters. The user can select a password and its length depending on the required security level; the default password is 8 random characters which provides over 10 trillion combinations.

What are the benefits?

The telecom capability can be instantly restored under your organisation's secure control, rather than being subject to the time for physical repairs to be undertaken.

Example of a situation involving FleXtel numbers in emergency planning:

There has been an incident local to a strategic centre, where the facility has been evacuated or the phone lines are down. There are no calls being answered or received as a result. Using FleXtel, calls can be rapidly rerouted to a new location where personnel are available, thus overcoming any bottlenecks or damaged networks.
