Introduction to your BT Versatility system

System description

• The BT Versatility is an Integrated Communications System supporting all your
voice call needs and also provides an Integrated Data Solution which allows multiple
simultaneous Internet sessions.
• The BT Versatility can accommodate up to 8 Analogue Lines, or 4 Digital Lines,
or a combination of both, and up to 32 Extensions.
• The BT Versatility is modular in construction. It is upgraded by adding various
system modules.
• The BT Versatility has a simple-to-use menu-driven interface.
• The BT Versatility is a hybrid PABX/key-system.
• The BT Versatility has an Optional Internet Module providing seamless multiple
Internet sessions.
• The BT Versatility can operate with System Featurephones, standard Tone
Telephones, or approved ISDN devices.
• Two Featurephone types are provided. The V8, which has 8 line keys,
and the V16, which has 16 line keys. An Expansion Module can be used with
the V16 Featurephone providing an additional 32 keys.
• The BT Versatility has remote access and maintenance capability.
The BT Versatility's modular design allows it to grow as you grow. No matter what size
system you start with, you can expand up to the maximum capacity. The base system
includes either two or four lines and allows up to eight extensions to be connected.
The lines can be either Analogue or ISDN Basic Rate or a combination of both.
The system Featurephone has a large display area that features an intuitive menu-driven
interface. Display Keys activate the facilities that are shown on the Display. It is not
necessary to dial any feature codes when using the Featurephone. This makes the
system easy to use and saves you time.
The BT Versatility is extremely flexible. You have the choice of operating the system as
either a key system:
• where all users have direct access to all lines for making and receiving calls
• as a PABX with all calls being answered by an operator console
• or as a hybrid combination of both.
You can choose to use system Featurephones or standard telephones at each extension,
and you can change the set combination at any time. A Door Intercom is available that
can be programmed to ring at any extension, and a Doorstrike output is also provided.
A Long-line Extension, a Central Bell or external Music-on-Hold may also be used by
installing an Options Module.
The BT Versatility is easy to install and maintain. BT can diagnose and programme
your system remotely. The system can also be configured to report alarms to your
BT Maintenance Centre.
