Talkaphone, a designer and manufacturer of emergency communications solutions, has announced the release of its newest solution, the Voice over LTE (VoLTE) Retrofit Kit. The VoLTE Retrofit Kit enables organizations to upgrade their existing legacy Blue Light Phone Towers—transitioning from outdated POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) lines to advanced 4G LTE cellular voice technology.
Upgrading to 4G LTE with the VoLTE Retrofit Kit modernizes critical Blue Light Phone safety systems against the ongoing shutdown of traditional landlines, reducing costs and increasing service time if repairs are needed.
The VoLTE Retrofit Kit is designed to revitalize outdated communication infrastructure without the need for complete hardware replacement. By converting legacy wired landline Blue Light Phone Towers into 4G LTE-enabled devices, organizations can upgrade to current communication standards without purchasing and installing a new tower.
The VoLTE Retrofit Kit provides a comprehensive, all-in-one solution for upgrading Blue Light Phones to 4G LTE. Designed for a seamless transition, it includes all necessary components—hardware, connectivity, and monitoring—ensuring a reliable and modern upgrade from aging POTS lines. Each VoLTE Retrofit Kit includes:
- ETP-520 Series Analog Call Station: ADA-compliant, hands-free two-way communication device.

- Antenna with 17-Foot Cable Assembly: Ensures optimal signal reception.
