TalkSwitch systems allow you to choose a
size that fits your needs today, then add more capacity when
your company grows.
Up to 64 users per location
TalkSwitch covers up to 32 traditional phone lines, 32 VoIP trunks and 64
local extensions per location. With a modular architecture and intelligent
networking capabilities, TalkSwitch flexibly fits a wide variety of office
configurations and protects your investment as you grow.
Which TalkSwitch is for me?
To plan your ideal TalkSwitch system, figure out how many phone lines,
extensions and VoIP trunks you need. Does each employee need a phone? Are
there other phones required, such as a courtesy phone in your lobby? Add them
up for the number of extensions you need.
Your total number of lines and VoIP trunks is the maximum number of simultaneous
calls your system will handle. So if you expect to have lots of people on the
phone at the same time, you'll need capacity for more lines or VoIP trunks than
if you have very light call traffic.
TalkSwitch models are numbered according to their capacity:
The analog extensions can use analog or IP phones. Each TalkSwitch unit also has capacity for
additional IP extensions that brings the total extension capacity to 16. So a TalkSwitch 484vs
has 8 analog or IP extenstions and 8 pure IP extensions.
You can increase capacity any time by upgrading or
networking units. Your options depend on the model (or models) of your
existing TalkSwitch system.
Networking TalkSwitch
You can combine up to 4 units, adding up the lines, extensions and VoIP trunks:
The networked system also has all of the remote extensions and voicemail boxes
of the individual units combined. New units added on the network automatically
find your existing system and clone your established configuration settings. The
networked units work as a single, unified system.
TalkSwitch plugs into your LAN with standard Ethernet cabling. TalkSwitch VS
models can all be networked together, as long as they're all running the same
version of the TalkSwitch software. VS units can also be networked with TalkSwitch
48-CA and 48-CVA units.
Upgrading TalkSwitch
Many TalkSwitch models can be upgraded to add capacity. TalkSwitch
upgrades come in several capacities:
240plus: Adds 2 traditional lines and four
extensions. The 240plus converts a TalkSwitch 240vs into a 480vs and a 244vs into a 484vs.
40plus: Adds 4 extensions. The 40plus converts
a TalkSwitch 240vs to a 280vs, a 244vs to a 284vs or a 248vs to a 288vs.
4plus: Adds 4 VoIP trunks. The 4plus converts
a TalkSwitch 240vs to a 244vs, a 280vs to a 284vs, a 480vs to a 484vs, or an 840vs to an 844vs.
8plus: Adds 8 VoIP trunks. The 8plus converts a TalkSwitch 240vs to a
248vs, a 280vs to a 288vs, a 480vs to a 488vs or an 840vs to an 848vs.
To upgrade a TalkSwitch unit, you remove the lid and add an upgrade board. It's a
relatively simple operation, and the circuit boards come with easy instructions.
Your TalkSwitch reseller can also install upgrades for you.
