calls. You can dial a (prefix) number to make an outgoing PSTN call. You can still make
PSTN phone calls if the Prestige 2002L loses power.

connected to the telephone line. The Prestige can support three devices per telephone port.

The Prestige allows you to simultaneously use multiple voice (SIP) accounts and assign them
to one or both telephone ports.

• G.711
• G.729
