Savings from A Smaller System

The space the DEFINTY AUDIX system Release 4.0 requires from the customer’s switch has decreased from previous releases of the system by 60%. The system now only requires two universal port slots in the customer’s DEFINITY switch or one slot in a Compact Modular Cabinet (CMC),2 while previous releases required five slots.

For smaller switches, such as the CMC, a voice messaging system that only takes one or two slots can make expanding the customer’s telecommunications capacity much more efficient in the long run. With a two-slot voice messaging system, customers can further expand their telecommunications capacities—adding voice ports or local area network (LAN) features, for example—before they must invest in switch upgrades.

Features for the Subscriber

Subscribers can perform many tasks with the DEFINITY AUDIX system that make communication faster, easier, and more convenient:

■Store incoming and outgoing messages in a voice mailbox

■Use a streamlined voice menu to speed through complex transactions

■Post multiple personal greetings on the system, which subscribers can change according to their availability

■Compose spoken messages with Voice Mail, which they can send to one or more other subscribers on the DEFINITY AUDIX system

■Send messages to many recipients at once using mailing lists

■Address voice mail messages by typing recipients’ names, rather than their extensions, on their telephone keypads

■Advance or rewind messages as they listen

■Receive visual notification of new messages with message waiting indicators (MWIs)—lights or display screens on subscribers’ telephones that indicate new messages

2. For the system to take one slot, it must be installed in slot 6.
