About TransTalk
Congratulations on the purchase of your new TransTalk 9000 Digital Wireless System MDW 9040 Wireless
Pocket Phone. MDW stands for "Multi-Line Digital Wireless." The MDW 9040 Pocket Phones are the latest
addition to the TransTalk 9000 family of wireless products. These phones are designed to Avaya
Communication's high standards for convenience, reliability, and innovation.
What Is a Wireless Phone?
A wireless phone has no handset cord, so it is portable. This portability lets you move around freely, without
giving up the features of a wired phone. With a wireless phone, you can make and receive calls even when you
are away from your desk, thus remaining accessible and responsive to your customers and coworkers as you
move around your work area. Time-sensitive work issues will not have to be postponed until you are back at your
desk. You can also reduce the number of (sometimes costly) phone calls you must return.
About the MDW 9040 Pocket Phone
The MDW 9040 Pocket Phone has been designed to work with Avaya communications systems including

IMPORTANT NOTE: The MDW 9040 is NOT backward
compatible with other TransTalk systems; that is, it CANNOT be
added to existing TransTalk systems or used in the same coverage
area as the MDW 9000, MDW 9010, MDW 9030, or MDW 9031.
The MDW 9040 is lightweight and pocket-sized. A belt clip and wrist lanyard are provided with the handset. You
can use either the clip or the lanyard for hands-free portability. The MDW 9040 also has a headset connector to
accommodate an optional headset.

The MDW 9040 is different from its predecessors in several ways:
•
The base station to which the handset is linked is called a Dual Radio Module
because each module can support two handsets simultaneously.
•
Synchronization of multiple Dual Radio Modules and handsets is accomplished
without a carrier. The radio module itself can be placed on a flat surface such as a
shelf or table or mounted on a wall.
•
In the past, one base station was shipped from the factory together with a handset
with the same serial code and registration number. Beginning with the
MDW 9040, the Dual Radio Module and the handset are packaged separately, and
the customer will need to register each handset with the radio module with which
it will communicate. Again, each Dual Radio Module can communicate with two
handsets.
