With the NBX business telephone, users get an intelligent, multiline Ethernet telephone that puts powerful call processing features at their fingertips.
The unit simplifies user operations with large, dedicated feature buttons for
frequently used services, 18 easily programmable buttons for
customizing other services, and an illuminated New Message button for one-touch access to the NBX 100 Advanced PowerMail eXchange (APX) integrated messaging system.
Other features include four-party conferencing, transfer, hold, voice mail forwarding,
full-duplex speakerphone, and multi-line display with Caller ID service where available.
Users can program their own telephones, too, through the NBX NetSet browser-based administration/training utility.
Embedded DSP intelligence employs programmable QoS and compression mechanisms to help manage bandwidth and audio quality, delivering business-quality voice clarity even on high-traffic LANs; programmability assures users of simplified new-function upgrades.
Each telephone set contains an internal repeater hub; user PCs or laptops plug directly into LAN hub or switch ports, eliminating costs of traditional phone cables and simplifying system administration.
NBX phone sets are self-locating, so users can plug them into any LAN port without losing their button-programmed features; this improves user mobility and helps reduce the costs of moves, adds, and changes.
Integrated, LAN-based architecture eliminates the need for dual LAN-voice cabling, frees users from the added complexity and instability of PC-based designs, and enhances system reliability.
A powerful call processor card combines built-in auto-attendant/voice mail services with other built-in services such as hunt-group and calling-group capabilities, unified messaging, and CTI interfaces, giving smaller
organizations advanced applications in an affordable package.
Distributed DSP intelligence in telephone sets and interface modules facilitates future modifications and additions to protocols, compression techniques, and QoS services.
The standard NBX NetSet browser-based administration/training utility and telephone-set self-locating capabilities simplify administration and training and reduce costs of moves, adds, and changes.
A new analog terminal adapter and analog terminal card let organizations mix traditional analog phones, faxes, bell- and alert-devices in with their NBX business phones to further extend configuration flexibility.
Multi-level auto-attendant menuing and support for multiple simultaneous auto-attendants let users customize their auto-attendant functions to maximize system responsiveness to callers.
Compatibility with popular connectivity and QoS standards-from PSTN, T1, and H.323 to 802.1p and IP TOS-gives users far-reaching configuration options.
