■ Calling-Party Name Display — If your telephone is equipped with a digital
display, information about the person calling you is displayed before you
pick up the receiver. You can know who is calling if that person is in a
nearby building or even across the country.
■ Centralized Messaging — Messaging services for the entire Distributed
Communication System network may be coordinated by one system,
depending on volume and the version of the main and remote switches.
This means that switches with smaller messaging requirements do not
share a voice messaging system with another switch.
