UKT&I case study

Businesses worldwide rely on the one safe, secure and internationally accepted method of sending important documents rapidly – the telex system. Unlike standard e-mail, telex retains full legal document standard and in today’s increasingly global marketplace its importance as a critical tool for commerce and major industry is greater than ever.
 
One major reason for the enduring success of the telex system is the way a British company, Network Telex, has set the pace for customers by bringing telex communications into the 21st century.

The scheme has enabled staff to visit Dubai, the Cayman Islands and New York, becoming the sole provider of telex in the Caymans.
 
Another major export success is a recently-signed US$1 million deal with US transport communications specialist ARINC, which enables global air passengers to send faxes while airborne. This partnership deal means Network Telex is now processing faxes, telex and sms messages on behalf of several leading airlines.
