Extension Jack Pairs for Analog Telephones 2
Use these instructions only if the system has analog multiline telephones.
Otherwise, skip to the next section, “Jacks for MLX Telephones”.
MLX telephones can use the Voice Announce to Busy feature or simultaneous
voice and data without requiring a second extension jack.
Analog multiline telephones require an additional extension jack to use Voice
Announce to Busy or voice and data. The jacks must be an odd-numbered analog
extension jack and the next higher (even-numbered) analog extension jack. The
system assigns individual extension numbers to each of the jacks. The extension
number associated with the first (odd-numbered) extension jack in the pair is the
telephones extension number. Calls cannot be placed to the extension number
associated with the even-numbered extension jack. (For information about
renumbering jacks, see System Renumbering later in this chapter.)
You can assign Voice Announce to Busy or voice and data to any of the analog
multiline telephones in the system, but you cannot assign both to the same
telephone.
Planning Form Instructions 2
On Form 2a, mark the pairs of jacks for analog multiline telephones that have
Voice Announce to Busy or voice and data:
1. In the Log. ID column, draw a box around the pair of extension jack
numbers that you plan to assign to each analog multiline extension with
either feature.
2. In the Person, Location, or Function column, next to the first
(odd-numbered logical ID) number of each boxed pair, identify the
extension by person or location.
3. In the Person, Location, or Function column, next to the second
(even-numbered logical ID) number of each boxed pair, do
one
of the
following:
■ For the Voice Announce to Busy feature, write voice/voice.
■ For voice and data, write voice/data.
Proceed to the next section, “Jacks for MLX Telephones”.
