Tandem Ringing - NEC SL2100 Features And Specifications Manual

ISSUE 1.0
Description
Tandem Ringing allows an extension user to have two telephones with one telephone number. For
example, extension 205 (the master telephone) sets Tandem Ringing with extension 206. When
extension 205 receives an incoming call, both extensions 205 and 206 ring. Callers would dial the
master extension number (extension 205 in this example). When either the master telephone or slave
telephone is in use, the other telephone cannot be used for outgoing calls or incoming calls.
The Multiline Terminal must be paired with a Single Line Terminal. It cannot be paired with another
Multiline Terminal or a SIP Terminal.
A Single Line Terminal can be the master of another Single Line Terminal but cannot be the master of
a Multiline Terminal.
Conditions
• The slave telephone cannot call the master telephone.

numbers over as well cannot be registered.
• If Tandem Ringing is enabled, and one of the extensions is busy, no additional calls can be received
or placed from either telephone.
