Public TTY Series

  • Motorized models offer maximum protection from vandalism. The stainless steel TTY keyboard remains protected in a metal drawer until a TTY call is placed. The drawer opens automatically when another TTY answers and closes again when the call is finished. For installations with less traffic, the durable shelf-top model (ST120) is ideal. It's easy to install for either acoustic or direct connect use, and has on-line help to assist users. It has a 1-line, 20-character vacuum fluorescent display. The shelf-top Public TTY can be used as an acoustic TTY using the payphone handset or it can be connected directly into the telephone line.
  • Approximate price: $699.00 to $1,500.00.
