I am looking for all the pics of phones that I can get. With of course the name of them and system they go to. No matter how old or new. I am working on a slide show of all the sets out and doing a graph of system and sets.
If anyone has some they can send please do and I will keep a list of them and post back here so I don't get the same stuff over and over.

Here is one:



Here is another (Available for sale; make offer):

Clicking on the image below, then choose "Full size" (in the upper righthand side of the page). Download the *.jpg and use photo editing software to isolate and save individual images.

Here's a picture of an Inter-Tel Axxess Executive phone, new style, part number 550.4500

thats a cool pic dagwoodsystems. I downloaded it but it saves it as a .wbz file. How do you open it?

You should post it on another site that lets you download the file in .jpg format. I like to use www.phototiki.com. It works well and you can send from your camera phone directly to the site.

WOW!

A Merlin PFC, I had to stare at it a while to remember what it was.

It's a combination BIS-34 & a Fax Machine.

It went over like a Lead Balloon.

In NY the PFC was fairly popular.

The Merlin PFC was a great concept (in theory), but with most Merlin products required specialized parts; the paper used to fill it was 1/2" core where as the huge majority of thermal fax machines of the time were 1" core. I still have mine, even though I don't use it, I still have a litle niche for it in my heart. Then again, I packrat all my Merlin stuff...even my Merlin Plus data collector for SMDR.

Micheal, who made that key phone, intercom phone, whatever phone? It's like the Pontiac AZTEC, so ugly it's cool. John C.

Here's the GTE XT-300. Two lines, speakerphone and built in 300 baud modem. They had a text editor and a large directory built in. The XT-300E came in a slightly different shade of ??? (Whatever that is) and upgraded you to a 1200 baud modem. It was awesome! Pre-PC we used them for email and they were excellent to dial into the switches with for remote programming.

Silversam Could use that today to dial into switches??

You can use XnView to view and or convert it... it's free too : https://www.xnview.com/

Absolutely - If your switch accepts modem calls at 300 (or 1200) bps. It was really nice because you could set up soft keys to type out the really long common commands.

We also used them on site. They had a serial port in the back that you could use to directly connect to the switch (or for a serial printer).

Merritt -

Thanks for fixing the link to the picture. I couldn't remember what the heck I did that was wrong. PM me and remind me if you get a chance.

My Siemens Saturn III's still use a 300 baud modem, and for some reason (because it automatically connects to the processor that's active) that's still how I dial into it, when necessary.

Here are a bunch.....8 pages worth of phones compatible with the Avaya IP Office......

We had one of those in my old shop in NY. Used it to dial into Perceptions an VP100 voicemails.

I didn't think that the 4424LD+ was compatible with IP Office.

Take away the handset, add 2 eight inch floppy drives on the right end, vertically oriented, and you had the original NEC APC computer. What a monster, used it to program NEC2400's. Insert the floppies, boot , and it sounded like a Model A Ford starting! Clunk, clunk, clunk, pause, clunk, clunk, clunk, pause, several times, and, TADA, you were ready to dial in and make changes. Ran with the OS before DOS, that used all kinds of programs, you just had to have the correct overlay. Anybody remember the name of that OS? Was it CPM? It was finally hit by Thor, thankfully. Some other time I'll tell you about how much fun it was getting the DOS programmer to run on a 486 with a 40 MEGABYTE hard drive. John C.

Here is a site built by one of my friends in the Antique Telephone Collectors Association.

Paul Fassbinder\'s telephone site.

Somebody wanted a sheep ringer for their phone?
here's a MP3 I just made
www.fdl.net/sheep.mp3

It isn't, which is why it is not listed on that link to the knowledge base.

Arthur, I've got a white 1500 set at home! I wasn't sure what it was when I got it at first.
