The Stick saves you money by allowing a wide range of equipment to “share” a single telephone line for remote access, polling, faxing, and normal in/outbound transactions that use a line only minutes a day.

Typical equipment includes:

• Point of Sale
• Energy Management/HVAC
• Time & Attendance
• Fax Machines
• Credit Card Terminals
• Digital Signage
• Postage Meters
• Dial-up Modems

The typical monthly cost for a business phone line is $50, plus additional taxes and fees. By leasing The Stick at only $19/month, a company can cut phone costs by more than half in one month with no initial out-of-pocket costs. Multiply the savings of one line eliminated by the total number of locations and the savings potential can be substantial. Many of our clients have eliminated TWO lines per location.

The lease program renews every 12 months and provides a customized Security Lock Box with every unit to lock down device connections. Research shows that this mounting enclosure prevents two service calls per year due to tampering. Also, if a Stick unit is ever in need of repair for any reason, e.g. lightning damage, Multi-Link will ship out a replacement unit at no cost.

Customized factory programming (if required) is also included. We program your Sticks exactly to application specs to expedite deployment and ensure conformity.  Custom install guides included. Our unlimited, toll-free USA based technical support offers the friendly assistance you need for expert answers and quick troubleshooting.

Installers have traditionally installed The Stick for remote polling of POS, Energy Management, Time & Attendance clocks, etc.  Be advised that many of the installations now involve inbound and outbound back-up access for remote service and more specifically, for outbound credit card transactions during network down time, as this insures and expedites the transaction.

With quality products, it is sometimes easy to forget the intangibles that can help ensure that your installation is complete before you leave the site. Here’s how we can help you:

• Quick Start Installation Sheets – Speak with your Multi-Link representative and discuss your needs and requirements.  We will customize to your specs, print, and include in each shipped unit.
• Factory Programming – Each installation project has unique requirements.We can program your units exactly to customer specs to meet the job requirements. This insures uniform performance and reduces time on-site.
• Toll Free Technical Support – Before, during, or after your installation, if you have any questions or concerns, our technicians are available to assist between the hours of 8am – 5pm, M-F, EST.
• Remote Diagnostics – Multi-Link products can be remotely diagnosed over the telephone line by our trained staff of technicians. If a programming change is required for a specific site, no problem…it takes one minute.
• Free 30-Day Product Trial – For projects you’re involved in AND not using The Stick, remember that virtually every company is a potential prospect for line-sharing technology. Seeing is believing, so we provide products to qualified prospects to try out for 30 days.That’s an idea worth sharing.

Multi-Link sets itself apart from the rest with experience and project “know-how”. Let us help work with you to keep your staff productive and your customer happy.

THE POWER STONE saves time, labor, and fuel costs. When trouble arrives and critical equipment locks up at a remote site hours away, a quick fix is impossible.

The Power Stone installs easily onto remote site equipment and allows you to reboot, toggle power,check current power status and past power outages. And, it’s as simple to use as a telephone.

Whether you use the term multi-function printer (MFP), all-in-on (AIO), or other nomenclature (multi-function copier, or MFC), printers that do more than just print have some clear advantages over single-function equipment; obviously, they save space and money compared to buying multiple separate machines. And who doesn’t like saving space or money?

Basically, an all-in-one will give you a printer, copier, and scanner in one package. Beyond that, if it’s designed primarily for office use, it will usually work as a standalone fax machine. If this is the case, a fax switch like The Stick will provide further savings. The Stick even can be used for fax software on a PC. The Stick routes incoming faxes based on the CNG tones emitted by the sending fax, irrespective of the equipment attached. The fax detection is automatic and takes only a few seconds to route.

So if you are the proud new owner of an All-in-One, get rid of the fax line and the monthly costs of a dedicated line. You are going to need the extra cash for all that ink you’ll be using. How much ink? Use our handy Cost Saving Calculator for yourself.

1. 36% of Companies are striving to reduce Telecom expenses.
2. Average cost of a business phone line is $50/month nationwide.
3. As IT and data acquisition improves and expands, there is less need for Analog Telephone Lines.
4. Companies are reducing their number of phones lines at their remote business locations.

However, not all Analog Phone Lines can be eliminated—typically the fax line remains, as well as back up lines for POS/Credit Card Terminals.    Point of Sale Systems generally use broadband connections where available for high-speed payment card processing. However, 75% or more of these systems use analog phone lines as back-up in case of network downtime or equipment malfunction. These back-up phone lines, although seldom or never used, represent recurring monthly expenses for businesses.

The Stick Phone/Fax/ Modem switch allows companies to reduce phone lines by “Sharing” the remaining Analog line(s) with devices that use the telephone line.

1. The analog line can be used as an “out of band” inbound and outbound communications path for critical information exchanges.
2. Over 600,000 units have been installed by companies with remote locations.
3. ROI in less than 2 months.

The SR-3 call processor is a passive line-sharing device that routes incoming phone (POTS) calls based on the “selective ring” service from the local telephone company. The SR-3 routes up to three numbers per line.  The selective ring service goes by different names depending on the phone service provider, and this service must be activated for the SR-3 to route properly. Typical cost for a selective ring phone number is $5 per month.

Past users of the SR-3 will notice a new sleeker cabinet, but the functionality is exactly the same.  Call 800-535-4651 with any questions.
