As part of the Page BossTM mine page phone series, the MSHA approved Model 118 Desk Phone from Pyotte Boone (PBE) with battery backup is designed for clear communication with underground and plant systems from an office or control room.
Page Boss phones ensure that users can obtain clear and undistorted communication. They feature rugged, NEMA 4X rated, polycar-bonate resin enclosures with a combination handle handset hanger and mounting bracket, and provide both paging and semi-private communications, as well as an inter-face unit which is available for connecting the pager phone network to leaky feeder radio systems.
