Line pools

A line pool allows each telephone access to external lines from a group (or pool) of external lines.

To access a line pool:

press an intercom button and enter a line pool access code

press a memory button programmed with the line pool feature code and a line pool access code

A line pool is a group of external lines shared by many telephones. You can use a line in a line pool to make an external call.

The system can support 15 line pools plus six PRI pools, and depending on system programming, a telephone can access any number of these line pools.

A line pool access code is the number you dial to get a line pool. The access code can be up to four digits long. You can have several different line pools for your system, each one giving you access to a different set of external lines. Line pools is one way of sharing lines across telephones in a system.

Your installer programs the access codes for line pools and gives each telephone access to a line pool.

Everyone in the office can have a list of the access codes for line pools their telephones can use.
