message-waiting lights.
Auxiliary Equipment. There are a variety of ways to set up fax

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.)
