Music On Hold® and Magic on Hold

You can connect a Music On Hold device to an LS or GS line/trunk jack programmed for Music On Hold. The system supports one such connection, either Magic on Hold or a customer-owned music source. The external music coupler (PEC 61398) uses an 8-ohm music source and two attenuation controls for setting the music level.

NOTE:

PagePac Plus equipment can be used with a loudspeaker system to provide music. Or it can provide paging without a music coupler.

If the equipment uses rebroadcasted music or other copyrighted materials, the customer is required to obtain a copyright release and may also require a copyright license from, and pay license fees to, a third party, such as the American Society of Composers, Artists, and Producers (ASCAP), or Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI). To bypass the release and license requirement, the customer can purchase a Magic on Hold system from Lucent Technologies, which does not require such a license.

Figures 3–25 and 3–26 show different background music configurations with single-zone and multizone paging.
