Audio and visual paging
Avaya’s overhead voice paging equipment allows telephone users to make
announcements by speaking into a telephone handset. DEFINITY ONE supports as
many as 9 paging zones, and 1 zone can be set up to activate every zone at the same
time. A zone is the location of the loudspeakers: for example, conference rooms,
warehouses, or storerooms.
Visual paging includes indoor LED message display signboards, wireless keyboards
for sign programming, connector kits for integrating with the PagePac Plus
equipment, and optional software for “ad-hoc” visual message programming.
Alerts and sensors
Avaya provides a complete product line of alerts and sensors for your business. With
alert devices, you can select the type of sound for incoming calls, such as bell, horn,
or chime sounds. Or, you can use visual signals such as flashing lights to indicate a
ringing call, a voice mailbox message, or a voice paging message.
Sensors detect and analyze central office ringing signals to determine if the signal is a
standard voice, data, or fax call. Once it determines the type of signal, the sensor
device routes the call to the appropriate end point.
External speakerphones
External speakerphones provide total telephone operation without using a handset.
Turning on a speakerphone is equivalent to lifting a handset when placing or
answering a call. Turning off the speakerphone is equivalent to hanging up the
handset. Although the majority of Avaya phones have built-in speakerphones,
external speakerphones are preferred for applications such as conference calls.
Security devices
Avaya provides the following security devices:
• Access Security Gateway (ASG)
The Access Security Gateway (ASG) is a built-in authentication feature that
offers a more secure alternative to static login passwords for remote access to
DEFINITY ONE. Using an encryption algorithm, the Access Security Gateway
uses session-based challenge and response technology to limit access to the
DEFINITY ONE system’s remote maintenance and administration port, system
administration terminal, and NET CON channels. See DEFINITY ONE
Communications System Release 2.0 Installation and Upgrades (555-233-109)
for information on how to administer this feature.
