SAU-1900E USER’S GUIDE 

(Draft: Version 0.00)

 

 
 

INTRODUCTION 
 

Your new MAXON SAU-1900E is designed to provide quality sounding voice 

communications to other people using almost any regular wire-line telephone in areas 
where normal ‘wired’ telephone service is not available.  By using the same technology as 
digital cellular telephones, your SAU-1900E, in conjunction with a cellular service 
provider, replaces the traditional wire-line service with a state of the art wireless 
telephone service.
