L
line key. A key on your ROLMphone telephone that provides access to an
extension. Each line key allows a single telephone call, and a telephone with
multiple line keys allows a user to place multiple simultaneous calls. A user
can talk on only one line at a time, though he or she may have another call
waiting on hold on another line, for example.
M
mute. A feature key that turns the telephone microphone off and on. This
feature controls the microphones in both the handset and the speakerphone.
O
outgoing call. Any call directed outside of your company's telephone system.
P
PBX (Private Branch Exchange). Equipment that allows an individual
within a community of users to originate and answer calls to and from the
public network, a private network, another PBX, special service trunks, and
other users within that community. The Siemens Communications Server is
part of this generic class of switching systems called PBXs. When not referring
specifically to the communications server, the term "PBX" is used (e.g., other
vendors' PBXs).
PhoneMail. PhoneMail is a registered trademark of Siemens Business
Communication Systems, Inc. used to distinguish Siemens' voice messaging
system from those of other vendors.
Q
queue. An ordering of calls waiting for a computer port, a modem, data group
access, or voice calls waiting for access to an extension or trunk.
R
repdial (repertory dialing) keys. On a ROLMphone telephone, repdial keys
give a user access to one-key dialing of a programmed telephone number or
feature.

Systems, Inc. used to distinguish Siemens' facsimile store-and-forward
messaging system from those of other vendors.
