Abstract: The described remote office system is designed for providing improved data acquisition and transfer from a remote sales location to a home office, and access to and use of home office information systems by the remote personnel. The office system comprises an “on-site” system, which is typically a central router placed at the home office and operatively connected to the home office computer system and to a communications network, such as a telephone network. The “offsite” system is at a location distant from headquarters/home office, such as a remote sales event, and is also connected to the communications network. The offsite system includes a plurality of electronic components packaged conveniently and durably and pre-configured with proper call-up and address information. This way, the remote system contacts the home office system and the remote system is identifiable by the home office system.
