The BeoCom 2500 is an advanced telephone with a
modern and user-friendly design.
The operation and the settings of the telephone are
done by menu driven operations.
The BeoCom 2500 has built-in Caller ID* capability
which allows you to see who is calling. The last 24 calls
to the telephone are stored in the Caller ID list. The
numbers can be shown in the display together with date
and time of each call. The BeoCom 2500 also supports
the Call Waiting service.
In the electronic Phone Book you can store up to 121
telephone numbers with names attached. It is easy to
enter numbers and names into the Phone Book as the
telephone display automatically asks whether you want
to store the number after a call.
An optional module for remote volume control of Bang

BeoCom 2500.
