Lucent Technologies 518-458-100 manual

Overview

■Headsets allow users to hold hands-free conversations. A headset is a combination earphone and microphone worn on the head, useful for receptionists, salespeople, or others who need to have their hands free while talking on the phone. Lucent Technologies offers several compatible headsets. Connect headsets and other adjunct equipment that do not require incoming ringing to any port or through the AUX jack on a PARTNER Endeavor Communications System telephone.

■Specialty Handsets are designed for those individuals who need greater functionality than that provided by the handsets on system phones and standard phones. For example, an amplified handset is available for all PARTNER Endeavor Communications System and PARTNER phones for hard-of-hearing users.

■In-Range Out-of-Building (IROB) protectors are required to prevent electrical surges from damaging your system when phones or other standard devices (such as a doorphone) are installed in a location other than the building where the control unit is installed. The system supports the Lucent Technologies IROB protector, which provides coverage for up to 3,000 feet (915 meters) for standard devices and 1,000 feet (305 meters) for system phones. (IROBs must be installed by a qualified technician.)

■Off-Premises Range Extender (OPRE) allows you to connect a standard touch-tone phone beyond 3,000 feet (915 meters) in another building on the same continuous property. It also allows you to use a special circuit from your local phone company to provide off-premises station capability.

NOTE:

Standard phones can be used to make calls when plugged into any port of the PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor or 362EC expansion module. However, standard phones will ring only when plugged into the Tip Ring ports, which are the bottom two ports.

■Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) filters allow you to block “noise” generated by a nearby radio station, as well as most electrical devices.

■Caller ID devices allow you to store and process Caller ID information. Although the system provides functionally integrated, multi-line Caller ID on system display phones, you can connect other devices provided you subscribe to the service from your local phone company and connect the device directly to the Caller ID line. You cannot install a Caller ID device directly to a PARTNER extension jack or to a combination extension jack. Refer to “Connecting Caller ID Devices” in the PARTNER Endeavor Communications System Installation guide for installation details.

NOTE:

Caller ID devices must be connected directly to the incoming communications line.
