24.01.2022 Some times just letting the bad guys know theyre being watched is enough. Sometimes it is part of a holistic approach. These are our stickers and large signs for sites.

24.01.2022 We have three trainees and and an apprentice on the go at the moment and they are all polite, responsive, and reliable. They all require a lot of supervision but there is no reason they wont be productive members of society in a couple of years. Also a client taking the opportunity to move away from the traditional carrier, reduce costs by 40%, and embrace the NBN. They left us for four years and regretted everyday. Happy to help them back. #NBN #ISDN #VOIP #Unify #selling #toowoomba #comtel #phones #SIP #VoiceData

24.01.2022 The new flight academy at Toowoomba Airport opened today. Air (Icom) and ground (Motorola DMR) radio communications were supplied and installed by Comtel technicians; on time, on budget and with local support. Thank you to Wagner Corp for investing locally. #icom #motorolasolutions #toowoomba

23.01.2022 We sent a team to Melbourne to install a 80GHz radio link with 10GB throughput over ~500m.

23.01.2022 Sure the workshop is overflowing with Emergency Service vehicles, but it is the unusual ones like the Mercedes G300 Professional or this Iveco Daily 4x4 that even the administration staff come out for a look at and we install all of their communication requirements.

23.01.2022 Proud supporters of the Toowoomba Camellia show. Theyre not just used to make tea, you know.

22.01.2022 Comtel have been utilising solar solutions at communications sites since 82, and while we dont do domestic or commercial off-grid solutions, we do a lot of 12v/48v projects. In this instance we had to de-comission the old hardware and install 500kg of new batteries and 2 x 300w panels in a remote location with about 5 days notice. It was a success; "Thank you for being accommodating of our requests, and able to assist us with such a large task at reasonably short notice. ...Please pass on my gratitude to your staff." The biggest drama is rock-paper-scissors to see which technicians get to ride in the helicopter.

22.01.2022 A pleasure to serve the local community by supporting the people and organisations who undertake such an important and sensitive role.

21.01.2022 A sleeve sponsor. Fancy that!

18.01.2022 A complimentary password management course hosted by Clevvi in Toowoomba. All monies raised are going to Lifeline to support struggling farmers.

16.01.2022 Elevator pitch: Most of our staff are technical support or administration, and they have their own social networks. So when theyre asked about Comtel, we need a snappy, easy, and professional response for them. So here it is; 1. Were local 2. Were business communication specialists 3. We guarantee our results... 4. We have the best equipment and the best people and if you want the full story, please see the attached.

16.01.2022 In addition to their formal apprentice & trainee courses, and on-the-job supervised work, it is also important to upskill the young workers with specialised training. Last week we sent three of our newer staff for instructor led training to safely work at heights, which is something they will do a lot of in this career path. Well done Thomas, Jordan, and Luke.

14.01.2022 Last week we started having our technical staff working from home. It isnt the cost of the laptop, mobile phone, or headset, but the $60k for the test equipment they need. This is an older Vicom, being used by one of our 3rd year apprentices, to setup a Simoco VHF with audio recording functionality for emergency services incident response. Looks like he has set-up on his parents dining room table so well see how impressed mum is with that over the next few weeks. #simoco #marantz

13.01.2022 If you need your staff to start working from home next week, we have a number of options available to you. For free business collaboration tools, try the 100 user version of Circuit; voice, video, chat, document sharing.

13.01.2022 Our trusty riggers installing a $50,000 weather station; It's in safe hands. If you have something that needs to be installed up high, then contact Comtel.

11.01.2022 The doorbird video intercom devices will connect to your office phones so you can talk to guests or delivery services from inside the building and even open the door. It can also call up to 8 smart devices remotely so you can talk to your visitors. It has a built in motion sensor and will take a photo every 30 seconds and let you know on your phone that somebody is at your door. There are a raft of free and premium applications available too. #socialdistancing #workfromhome #cctv #doorbird #unify

11.01.2022 When the new Fluke Cat6 data certifier and VDSL testers turn up it is like an end-of-financial-year party. It enables Comtel to continue to certify our data network installations for up to 20 years. Were constantly investing in our people and the tools of the trade. #fluke #krone #commscope

11.01.2022 Life isnt just about technology and networking, we are also mad keen on the arts you know. Be it theatre, music or creative, were keen to support our community. :)

10.01.2022 We are looking for a young person to start a traineeship in electronics in Toowoomba. Initially a lot of working in vehicles, cabling, trades assistant work etc. Would suit a young person finishing/finished school or recent leaver. Somebody who likes to tinker/break/repair electronics or auto-electronics would handle this sort of job. If you know someone suitable get them to send a resume to [email protected]

10.01.2022 When you need instant group communications for an event, Comtel can arrange two-way radio rentals with private channels. Inexpensive and they make your event work smoothly. Thanks to Mark at Red Heeler Print-Design-Online for swift banner production and artwork.

09.01.2022 The new State Emergency Services South West Region Mobile Command Centre has been launched. Comtel technicians provided consultation, design, and implementation services to the new emergency response appliance.

08.01.2022 A nice article from the local newspaper (Toowoomba Chronicle 21/08/2020) on our recent award success and larger projects. Stay tuned though; our biggest project is just around the corner and almost ready to announce.

08.01.2022 We were able to arrange training for volunteer Air Force Cadets in Toowoomba. Our Radio Service Manager is a Flying Officer in 210 Squadron, in his spare time, and is able to leverage our commercial relationships to improve the knowledge ans skills of his cadets. Well done Michael.

06.01.2022 We got a few hundred of these data sockets printed up by Recognition Plus in Toowoomba for a new build on the Darling Downs. A good result and the local economy is humming.

02.01.2022 Over the last few months, you will not be surprised to read that we have been setting up a lot of remote workers, and as much as there is a financial cost to business to set this up, at exactly the time when revenue is being impacted, it needs to be done properly. Use a full featured soft-client, not a cheap featureless base version or your mobile as a dumb terminal, and use a proper headset, not the 3.5mm one that came with your last mobile phone purchase. A reputable brand ...like EPOS|Sennheiser USB or Bluetooth will give you these types of characteristics; 1. wideband audio, so you hear and sound better. 2. incoming alert control, so the device speakers ring on incoming but use headset audio during call. 3. noise cancelling. We know there are different noises at home than in the office including children, partners, pets and outdoor intrusions, but as a professional you need to deal with that. See more

01.01.2022 Recent Project: Queensland Police Service upgrade cabling at 171 sites. We hold Krone cabling design certification with our trade certified cablers having individual certification which allows us to offer 25 year warranties on our installations. We have calibrated fibre and copper testers and certifiers so the end result is exact for our clients. Recently we have been repairing a lot of work undertaken by cabling organisations because it just doesnt work properly which corrupts data, slows traffic, and causes failures. Attached is a project we undertook recently for the Queensland Police Service upgrading the interview rooms data infrastructure at 171 sites state-wide; on time and on budget. #krone #structuredcabling
