Connecting Caller Id Display Units - Lucent Technologies PARTNER Advanced Communications System Release 1.0 Installation Manual

Connecting Caller ID Display Units

The system provides multi-line Caller ID on system display phones without having to install additional
devices. (See "Caller ID" in Chapter 5 of the PARTNER Advanced Communications System
Programming and Use guide for more information.) However, if you want to display or process Caller
ID information for other applications—for example, on a PC that displays call records—you must
connect the devices as described here. First, you must subscribe to Caller ID service (on a per-line
basis) from your local telephone company, then connect the Caller ID display device directly to the
line that supports Caller ID at the network interface jack. Additionally, you must provide a separate
wiring run for the device to the appropriate location. To have additional wiring runs installed, call a
qualified technician.
NOTE:
To process Caller ID information for multiple lines, you must provide a separate device and a
separate wiring run for each line, even if they are all at a single phone.
