Years ago I bought, sold and installed a two line Mitel SX5 switch. That was a great little unit. Would love to find some now. Anyone got any I can buy? Al Dukes

Al wasn't that the 1 that had modules for the stations and you plugged any ol' s/l phone into it? The modules were actually the IC numbers? That way, typical home daisy chain wiring was no problemo. If that's the one, I think Mitel tried to recall them, problems with the station modules, as I recall. John C. (Not Garand)

No, that was the Entrepreneur. The SX-5 is a scaled down 10 that uses the same trunk modules and SLICS.

Jeff found the right unit. It worked great, easy to install, and to my knowledge is still being used some 20+ years later. I have lots of Mennonite customers and it[s perfect for their application on their farms. I connect all of their greenhouses, house, shops, and barns for intercom and transferring calls. The SX5 was cheap and would buy as many as I could get my hands on. Problem is I cannot find them anywhere. Please keep me in mind if something does show up. Thanks, Al Dukes

The problem is that a Panasonic TA-824 has more features than the 5 and it sells for about 1/2 of what the 5 sold for new.
Yabbut your OPX extensons are only fed with 24 volts. Outside of that, the box is smaller, it can grow larger, and it is easily programmed.
I keep the 5 because I have a 10, Super 10 and 200 in inventory and the trunk cards are compatible with the 10's.
Just a thought.
