In addition to allowing wider spread voice calls, one of the most significant advantages of the network is its capacity to connect with the mines dispatching system, which manages operations such as equipment allocation, refuelling, and monitoring equipment downtime. This vastly improves efficiency and safety, ensuring that miners can keep in touch with the outside world and aboveground teams at any time.

The solution meets the requirements of the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.Īs the system is deployed, miners can communicate with each other underground using their own SIM cards or phone numbers. The solution deployed by Huawei and China Telecom harnesses the power of IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) to provide Voice over LTE (VoLTE) and Voice over New Radio (VoNR) capabilities, enabling 4G/5G convergent audio and video calls. In case of issues arising and miners needing to communicate, the only option was to use a phone in a fixed location, and miners could not communicate with above ground colleagues in real time. The mining industry is plagued with inefficient aboveground and underground communications, with fixed-line phones or trunking calls being the standard means of communications. In this way, I only need one SIM.China Telecom and Huawei have launched a 5G one number converged private network, with the solution seeing commercial use as it has been deployed in the Sandaogou coal mine in Yulin. When I go out, I swap the SIM to my phone. When I am using the SIM on my PC for data at home or in the office, I can still be contacted via phone call. One SIM for both PC and phone saves money. They will provide you with a SIM which can handle voice, sms and data. Phone companies and ISP now have SIM-only service. A phone call is still required for official matters.Ģ. Not wanting to being become part of anyone's botnet, I have changed the default username and password to something generated with KeePassX.ġ. When overseas, I do use a 4G SIM in a TP-Link mobile Wi-Fi which allows up to ten connections (enough for my small family) and much cheaper than alternatives. The idea of plugging a SIM card into a computer to make a phone call is unnecessary when a phone is much smaller, more portable and so on. Yes, I think most people either use a phone OR applications such as Wire for making free calls and older apps like Skype for low cost calls to phone numbers anywhere in the world OR all of them. have you searched?ī) the world seems to have moved on to internet calls, so that's another reason why a dedicated software (or any effort in that direction) might not exist.
