The PHOENIX also has two slots for inserting optional communication modules: PSTN, ISDN, X21, V35 and GSM. Indeed the modular approach of the PHOENIX means that future modules can be easily developed depending upon market preferences.

As main part of this project AEQ has organized 5 technical seminars in the India to qualify in the use of the new IP and 3G technologies available in Phoenix together with the traditional ISDN interface, possessing a total assistance near to 200 persons exceeding all the expectations.

The PHOENIX, in addition to the main programme and return, can simultaneously provide a backup (or coordination) channel utilising the optional communication modules. The PHOENIX family has been designed to ensure interoperability with both present and future AEQ and third-party equipment. Therefore it is equipped with a great variety of encoding formats and can easily be upgraded to other formats as the market matures.
