Overview

The 2420 Digital Telephone is a multi-line digital telephone for use with an Avaya MultiVantage™ software 1.1 or later. It is designed to put convenient features and capabilities at your fingertips, including:

an easy-to-readscreen—that allows you to view call appearance/feature button labels, the call log, speed dial lists, and call identifier information.

a flexible call appearance/feature button display—that allows you to choose between an 8 or 12-button label format and eliminates the need for paper button labels. Up to 24 additional call appearance/feature buttons for your call processing system can be displayed on the optional EU24 Expansion Module (see “Support for Optional Devices” on page 3).

a customizable interface—that allows you to create personal speed dial lists, to specify the call types you want to appear in the call log, to select the telephone ring pattern, and to choose the language displayed on your 2420 telephone.

Note: You can choose to view screen text in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, and Portuguese. If your Avaya call processing system is programmed for Japanese, the 2420 telephone language option is automatically set for you.

a programmable speed dial list—that allows you to store up to 104 entries.

a programmable call log—that supports up to 100 entries (including calling party name and number, when available, for incoming calls) and allows you to specify the call type (that is, answered or unanswered incoming calls, and outgoing calls) that is logged.

As soon as you install the 2420 telephone, you can take advantage of these powerful features because your telephone is instantly recognized by your call processing system. Depending on how it is administered at the call processing system, the 2420 telephone can also be moved to another office at your location and begin working without interruption. There’s no need to wait for reprogramming or technical support.
