Industry-Level Business Phone-System, in the Cloud
When you’re setting up a shooting location, one of the earliest operational structures you’ll need is to set up your network and communications systems. Getting phone, network, and Wi-Fi service, especially in a remote area, can be a costly nightmare. From securing and setting up networking hardware to finding available coverage, the time and financial cost of getting your shoot up and running in a timely fashion can get out of control fast. That’s where we can help. We provide routers, network switches, Wi-Fi access points, and VoIP based phones, all in a single install.
Let Class5 take care of business for you. Our virtual PBX phone systems are a great addition to any filming location, large or small. Class5’s cloud-based PBX, also called hosted VoIP, is an internet based phone system that doesn’t require landlines. We offer service on a monthly basis, with no long term contracts. From network support and hardware rental to a business phone-system hosted on the cloud, Class5 offers the full support you need to get your filming location connected fast.
Film Industry Networking Services
Internet access is a given in most workplaces. We rely on it for communicating, uploading data to the cloud, looking up information, and organizing important assets. We have worked with many different production groups and understand the security requirements they prefer. You won’t just get a fast network, but one where accounting departments are securely separated from others by VLANS, and where all wireless is encrypted and can support hundreds of concurrent users.
Within our service area, we offer on-site setup and takedown. For shooting locations outside our service area, we’ll ship you the equipment and support you through the process to make setting up your network as easy as possible. We’ll teach you how to set up and take down so that you can easily switch between filming locations. Our networks also support business phone-systems hosted on our cloud.
For locations without easy access to wiring, we offer long range antennas to serve as wireless bridges, connecting your film shoot to the nearest local network. We also offer antennas and strong Wi-Fi bases for setting up multiple recurrent locations, to make sure your whole location has coverage.
Business Ready Phone System, on the Cloud
Keeping in contact with the film crew across the shooting location is a crucial requirement, but finding and maintaining the equipment can be difficult. Class5 offers a cloud-based PBX, or Private Branch Exchange, that is hosted and managed by us. Because our virtual PBX phone systems are cloud based, you don’t have to worry about landlines or the maintenance of a complex system.
Class5 offers telephone numbers for your filming locations, so that wherever you’re shooting, your local. We provide the hardware to go with your phone system, and from our hosted PBX, we’ll set up each of your departments and auto attendants with dedicated phones. Our phones are designed especially for our hosted VoIP services, so you can enjoy clear calls without having to worry about drops or jittering.
Seasonal Film Services
Not every film shoot is a one-and-done scenario. TV shows and other seasonal crews need a reliable system that you can come right back to instead of having to create a new business phone system for the cloud. For our seasonal clients, we’ll keep your numbers, extensions, and cloud-based PBX programmed and ready for your next shoot.
