MULTI NUMBER SWITCH - Product Description
WITH THE MULTIPLE NUMBER SWITCH, YOU CAN SPECIFY WHICH TELEPHONES
YOU WISH TO RING FOR EACH TELEPHONE NUMBER ON YOUR LINE!
Telstra’s new Multiple Number service will allow TWO SEPARATE TELEPHONE NUMBERS to be used on ONE TELEPHONE LINE. This will then allow you to have a separate number for both your business and your personal use. Similarly the second number could also be used for any other application where you wish to separate incoming calls, (ie your children’s line or even your granny flat).
MULTIPLE NUMBER SWITCH will analyse the FIRST INCOMING RING for all incoming calls, regardless of the number that has been dialled and connect the incoming call only to those telephones that are required to RING.
This device also provides BARGE-IN protection. This will ensure that a conversation taking place on one number (for example your business number), cannot be interrupted by any telephone that is connected to the other number (for example your personal number).
When your EXISTING TELEPHONE NUMBER is called, MULTIPLE NUMBER SWITCH will connect this call direct to the telephone(s) that are connected to the PRIMARY NUMBER port of the Line Sharer. These telephones will RING as normal, following a delay of 1 RING, which the Line Sharer uses to determine the number called.
However when your NEW NUMBER is called, your telephone exchange will immediately generate a NEW RING PATTERN down your line, which is different to your normal ring pattern. This new DISTINCTIVE RING pattern will be detected by your MULTIPLE NUMBER SWITCH during the first incoming ring, at which point it will connect the incoming call to the telephone(s) that are connected to the MULTIPLE NUMBER port of the Line Sharer. These telephones will then RING (with a slightly different pattern), following a delay of 1 RING, which the Line Sharer uses to determine the number called.
Regardless of the number that has been called, the operation of the Line Sharer is TRANSPARENT. Your caller will simply hear the NORMAL RING PATTERN until the call has been answered. All telephone equipment used on the EXISTING NUMBER (such as a Cordless Telephone, Answering Machine, Fax Machine, Modem or other device) will not be affected by the installation of the Line Sharer or the use of the alternative NEW NUMBER. They will continue to operate as normal.
