ONFIGURATION
A 4-Port Analog Terminal Card or a Single-Port Analog Terminal Adapter
(ATA) allows ordinary analog (2500-series compliant) telephones,
including cordless telephones and Group-3 facsimile devices, to operate
with NBX systems.
Certain limitations apply because of the differences between an analog
device and the custom NBX Telephone:
A user dials 500, then ** on a telephone connected to an ATA to gain
■
access to voice mail.
A telephone can make or answer only one call. The second incoming
■
call goes to voice mail.
ATC ports and ATAs support call transfer.
