PCO (Public Calling Office)

PCO ABOUT PCO

Thuraya Public Calling Office (ThurayaPCO) is a powerful, versatile and cost effective telecommunication tool for thousands of people around the world.

The PCO based on the latest micro-controller technology, is intended to monitor each outgoing call. The complete data can be viewed on a 16×2 alphanumeric display area of the PCO while the line status is displayed on the corresponding booth display. The PCO also facilitates all printouts to be taken on a 24 column alphanumeric printer.

While on-hook, the calendar information is displayed on the LCD display as well as on the corresponding booth displays. When the handset is off-hook, the corresponding booth display shows “dial the number” message. While the number is being dialed, the station name of the dialed number can be viewed on the console display.

You can also view the tariff and duration of the call that are displayed on the console display and corresponding booth display. When the call is terminated, the details of the call are printed as the ‘Call Bill’.
