My manager Call the company and they said and It worksbest up to quarter miles. I think We need more than that. At least 1 miles. Thanks for the advice.

most of these cant be used in the US though if you are in the us I think your best bet is nextell if its available

Unless you have a LOT of cell phones, cellular service will be yor best bet. Any system off your Meridian would require tranmitters around your whole campus.

You might check with Nortel to see if they have an extension to cellular feature that will work with your existing mobile sets.
