Field Upgradable

•same software used for both 128 & 384 units

Often, keeping up with technology can be a full-time job in itself. Whenever a vendor releases a new software update, you must wait for it to arrive by mail or download patches from a Web site. But this requires time, effort, and expertise.

Software in the VisuaLink 128 and VisuaLink 384 units can be upgraded by the user from anywhere. With the “Visual Connect” technology, downloading new software updates is as easy as placing a video call over an ISDN line. Just place a video call from anywhere into the NEC server system. The server takes it from there-- performing the download and verifying the integrity of both the software and the VisuaLink unit. There are no options to select and no technical knowledge required. In a matter of minutes, VisuaLink is up- to-date and ready to go.

In addition to software upgrades, the hardware to upgrade a VisuaLink 128 to a VisuaLink 384 can also be performed in the field. (Refer to the VisuaLink Quick Installation Guide, Stock # 0293885 for the simple upgrade procedure.)

PBX Connectivity

• NT1 is not needed

VisuaLink is totally compatible with NEC NEAX2400 IMX and NEAX 2000 PBX systems. VisuaLink uses a simple BRI interface connection with these PBX systems. Interface with an NEAX PBX does not require an NT1 device.
