2-Slot Carrier
5-Slot Carrier
NOTE:
If you want to install a VS module, keep in mind that it will require one of the
slots in the carrier, which reduces the system line and extension capacity.
System Mode
The system supports two modes of operation. The mode of operation determines
how users access outside lines from their phones:
Key Mode. Users access individual outside lines to make and receive
calls.
Hybrid Mode. Users can access individual outside lines as in Key mode.
However, you also can create up to four groups, or pools, of multiple
outside lines. When the user accesses a pool to make a call, the system
selects an available line from the pool. Since multiple lines are associated
with the pool, the user does not know which line within the pool is being
used to make the call.
System mode is determined by the configuration of the processor module. By
default, the system is configured for Key mode. Changing to Hybrid mode requires
modifying the processor module. Only Lucent Technologies Authorized Personnel
can modify the processor module to accommodate Hybrid mode.
