Industry News:
Wireless Industry Announces TTY Compatibility with Digital Cellular Phones

Meeting a deadline from the FCC, many wireless service providers across the country have updated their digital networks to be TTY compatible. Now, for the first time, TTY users can use compatible digital cellular phones and services to make wireless calls. 

Because TTY compatible digital cellular service may not yet be available in all areas, we encourage customers to check with their cellular phone salesperson and local wireless service providers before purchasing equipment. To make TTY calls using digital cellular phones, users need:

1. Ultratec's Compact/C (or Ameriphone's Q-90D)
2. A digital cellular phone that includes TTY compatible capabilities
3. A TTY compatible digital wireless service provider

To answer common customer questions, Ultratec has developed a Digital Cellular Phone/TTY Compatibility sheet. To request a copy, email us.

E-Turbo & Sprint Relay: Making Relay Calls Easier

E-Turbo, which stands for "Enhanced Turbo Code," is Ultratec's new TTY technology that simplifies calling through Sprint Relay Service. E-Turbo lets users directly dial the number of the person they are calling and brings Sprint Relay automatically into the call. It also eliminates most of the call start-up interaction between the TTY caller and the Communications Assistant (CA) by automatically passing on the details of the call to the Sprint Relay Service.

E-Turbo is currently available in all new Superprint Pro80 Series units from Ultratec. E-Turbo works with Sprint National Relay Service and Sprint state relay services nationwide. 

Sprint National Relay Service

- (877) 826-2255 (VCO)
- (877) 787-2660 (Speech to Speech)
- (800) 435-8590 (Spanish)
