Innovation is the key to survival and for centuries it has led to improvements in all aspects of our lives from achitecture to medicine and everything in between. In today’s high tech society, innovation moves at the speed of light and sparks competition among the most creative of individuals. Bill Gates was quoted as saying “Never before in history has innovation offered promise of so much to so many in so short a time”.
The attached video, produced by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety in celebration of their 50th anniversary, documents the vast difference between past and present automobile safety standards by engaging a 1959 Chevrolet Bel Air and a 2009 Chevrolet Malibu in a violent experimental car crash.

It was determined by a safety engineer on the scene that the driver of the 2009 vehicle would have incurred minor injuries, but the 1959 Chevy driver would not have survived the crash.
Telecommunications has followed an extraordinary path to evolve into the sophisticated machinery that now allows for reliable and affordable communication for everyone. Teltek’s founder, Bob Nicoli has witnessed tremendous change in his 50 years of experience in the telecom industry.
Although looking ahead is necessary to evolve and improve, concessions must be made for those who are not quite ready for all the changes the future brings. In addition to offering cutting-edge technology in the form of Avaya IP Office and NEC phone systems, we are still able to service and order parts for many of the older systems, including the Merlin Legend system, which first went into service in 1995 and was replaced by the Merlin Magix in 1999.
Some of our customers are still utilizing these systems on a daily basis and we are happy to preserve these sturdy pieces of telecom history. Trusted Innovation is what Teltek is all about. Give us a call today and find out why Teltek is the solution for all of your telecommunication needs, old and new!
