Expanding the Epic System, Standard Configuration | TMC ET4000

Expanding the Epic System

Your Epic system can accomodate up to 16 stations. The maximum number of lines will depend on how you choose to install the system.

Standard Configuration

This is the most common setup, and is the desired setup for most installations. This installation is also called “square” in telephone terminology. This means that each telephone in the system is connected to the same Line 1 telephone number, the same Line 2 telephone number, and so on for Lines 3 and 4.

The chart below shows a simple square configuration. Note that since all lines are shared by all the telephones, calls on any line can be transferred to any station. Also, calls put on hold at one station can be taken off of hold at any other station.

Station	User’s	Line 1	Line 2	Line 3	Line 4
Number	Name	Tel #555-1883	Tel #555-2870	Tel #555-3847	Tel #555-8698

Private Lines

You may connect private lines to Lines 2, 3 or 4 at each station. A private line is a telephone num- ber that is connected to just one station. You can have up to three private lines at each telephone.

The Chart below shows a few phones, with each one having its own private Line 4. This is a com- mon configuration in Centrex environments.
