Analogue

All sound actually begins in the form of sine waves and must be in this form to be heard by the human ear. Analogue devices (phones, answering machines, etc.) transmit and receive sound in the form of ‘sine waves’. The telephone lines in your home are also designed to carry analogue signals (sine waves). TalkSwitch is an analogue device and will work with any other analogue device or telephone system.

Auto Attendant Message TalkSwitch’s electronic attendant. A self-recorded message that greets and directs callers to select an extension number based on information provided in the message.

Auto Call Back

Allows you to activate Call Back by dialing one of TalkSwitch’s telephone numbers, letting the call ring at least once and then hanging up.
