The terminal is designed to be self installed by the end user. A customized version of the Phonecell SX5T terminal is currently in a five-city trial with Sprint. Telular is also working with other carriers implementing wireline substitution programs. In remote areas in North America where wireline infrastructure is not available, Telular is in partnerships with wireless and landline operators to provide primary telephony services to consumers.
