CommBox-ACU
People on shore call your vessel by dialing one of your
vessel’s phone numbers. If they call within the same
country code as the vessel’s phone number, they may
avoid international calling charges. If they call from
within the same area code, they may avoid long-
distance fees.
You can choose the country code and area code
of your vessel’s phone numbers. For an additional
monthly fee, you can also add up to five “virtual
numbers” to each vessel phone line. For details,
contact KVH’s Satellite Airtime & Product Activation
department (see www.kvh.com/mvbcustomercenter
for contact information).
