Product Description
Now you can eliminate the need for extra dedicated telephone lines with the ComSwitch 5500. Use the ComSwitch 5500 to automatically route calls to your phone, answering machine, fax OR modem - all on a single line!It lets up to 3 devices - usually a telephone, answering machine, fax or modem - share a single phone line. When you add a second or third phone number to your single line, the CS 5500 works smoothly with Distinctive Ring service offered by most local phone companies (different companies have various names for this service; check with your phone company for details). In short, the CS 5500 is able to recognize specific ring patterns assigned to your different phone numbers and route calls to the right device. The CS 5500 immediately answers every call in the "Automatic" mode. If you prefer to have all your extension phones ring normally, the "Semi-Automatic" mode is also selectable. The choice is yours. It is possible for the CS 5500 to work with Voice Messaging from the phone company (requires Distinctive Ring service activation). The system is also compatible with Caller ID service (requires service activation). Remote Message Notification - Never miss another important message while you're away. Every time you receive a voice message, fax document or data transmission, the CS 5500 will automatically send a special tone message to any desired telephone number - local or long distance. (Not compatible with tone pagers.) The CS 5500 is so smart it stays on the line during every call, listening for tone commands you send from the keypad of a telephone. So you can talk for a few minutes, push three keys, and transfer the call to your fax machine to receive a document.
