Call Reporting Devices. You can connect either a serial printer or a call accounting device, such
as Lucent Technologies Call Accounting Terminal, to the SMDR jack on the processor module to
record and/or analyze call activity.
In-Range Out-of-Building Protectors. Installing phones or other standard devices (such as a
doorphone) in a location other than the building where the control unit is installed requires Lucent
Technologies In-Range Out-of-Building (IROB) protectors, to prevent damage from lightning.
(IROBs must be installed by a qualified technician.)

Combination Extensions

You can connect a standard device (such as a standard phone or an answering machine) on an
extension by itself, or so that it shares an extension with another piece of equipment (either another
standard device or a system phone). An extension with two devices connected to it is called a
combination extension . (If you combine a standard phone and a system phone on one extension, you
may want to turn off the standard phone s ringer during normal use.)
You cannot install two system phones on the same extension, and the combined REN (Ringer
Equivalence Number) of two devices on one extension cannot exceed 2.0. (The REN for a system
phone is 0.0.)
NOTE:
The Call Assistant Intercom Autodialer is not regarded as a standard device. This means you can
connect a standard device to a system phone that also has an Intercom Autodialer installed.
PARTNER-model system phones have a built-in auxiliary jack so you can connect a standard device
directly to the phone without using a bridging adapter see
phone does not have a built-in auxiliary jack or if you want to connect two standard devices together, you
must use a Lucent Technologies 267F2 Bridging Adapter see
