I have a customer that is using a Telabs card (provided by Qwest) for a group of 5 phones. When any one phone picks up the handset the others will ring untill someone picks up a phone. Qwest is tell him that they do not have the cards anymore and if it goes down they can not repair it. He is going to get me a model # of the card so I can put out feelers for replacements.
My first response to him was to use his new Samsung DCS500 for the feature (I did not put the system in) but he claims that the system will not do it. My thought was to just set up the extensions as a hotline to a station group. He may be intested in this ideal (if it works) but would rather have an independent system. I know I should be able to do this with a TDA but looking at options. Any ideas?
Thanks
Stephanie

The Samsung iDCS500 does have hotline from one station to another. I would have to try programming it to see if it will hotline a group and any phone in that group can do the same. You should post this in the Samsung forum because somebody might already know the answer.

Thanks Larry,

The reason for here is the customer would prefer an independant system from the Samsung. It is an airport and if the Samsung did go down, this would give the ER areas communication.
I mention the Samsung just to see if anyone knows if it can do it as an option.
Thanks again,

Steph

Yes you can hotline the phone to a station group.
I'm sure you could also use a viking ringdown device as well although with 5 sets on it you may also need a ring booster which they also sell.

We use the viking ringdown unit to simulate ringing when we demo systems.

Works great!

Tryed with 5 cheap phones with warble ringer (not bells), and worked with no problem.

Tryed to ring 5 2500 sets with bells, and not enough juice to ring the phones. Just hear a clink.

Good Luck!!


If all else fails, use a BFH.

I'll look into the Viking. Most likely will need a booster as the phones are also located in different buildings.
Thanks again.
