Chapter 12
System features
This chapter describes how Business Communications Manager sends and receives different types
of information. This chapter also shows you a variety of services and how to use them.
ISDN
Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) technology provides a fast, accurate and reliable
means of sending and receiving data, image text and voice information through the telephone
system.
Using ISDN Primary Rate Interface (PRI) or Basic Rate Interface (BRI) allows for faster
transmission speeds and the addition of many powerful business applications, including remote
LAN access, video conferencing, file transfer, and Internet access.
Your installer or service representative configures your ISDN services and telephone equipment.
For more information about ISDN, see the Business Communications Manager Programming
Operations Guide.
You can use selected ISDN network features from a telephone in the system. Your central office
switch (ISDN network) determines which features are available to you.
Network name display
Your system shows the name of an incoming call when it is available from the service provider.
Name information appears on the display of a telephone. If the Calling Party Name has the status
of “private” it appears on the display as “Private name.” If the Calling Party Name is not available
it can appear on the display as “Unknown name.”
Your telephone display shows the name of the called party on an outgoing call, when available
from your service provider.
Your system sends the Business Name concatenated with the set name on an outgoing call but only
after the Business Name is programmed.
Name and number blocking
When activated, ≤°⁄· allows you to block the outgoing name and/or number on a
per-call basis. All telephones in the system can use the Name and number blocking feature.
Ask your customer service representative if this feature is compatible with the features available
from your service provider.
