Asterisk is Out of this World!
beelinebill January 28th, 2008
Digium once again proves that Asterisk allows customers to address endless VoIP applications. Digium recently demonstrated that VoIP is not limited to traditional desktops and terrestrial connections. At the Digium headquarters in Huntsville, Alabama a team of engineers form GATR technologies recently setup their Inflatable Deployable Satellite Communication System in the Digium parking lot. The AA50 Asterisk Appliance was connected to the Satellite VoIP Service and you can see it here with a Polycom phone used for the demo. The GATR technology allows for quick and mobile communications to be setup virtually anywhere in the world and is delivered in the two cases you see in the picture. With the ability to deploy everything necessary in a large “suitcase”, the GATR system truly redefines mobile worldwide communication system. The GATR technology is being used both in military and civilian applications. With its ability to be completely battery operated it proved to be extremely valuable communications tool during the Katrina recovery.

T-Tester,
Thanks for the comments. We do not have a video of this, but I’ll ask around and see if anyone did get one or if GATR has one. If we find one, will post the link here. Glad you subscribed, as we use this for directly communicating with the Asterisk world!
