Table 1.
Inter-Tel 5000 v2.3 Feature and Capability Descriptions
Feature or Capability Description
Dual-port digital trunk mod-
ule
The Dual T1/E1/PRI Module (T1M-2) is the central hardware
feature of v2.3. The T1M-2 module with applicable licensing
provides connectivity for any combination of two T1, T1/PRI or
E1/PRI trunks. Up to six T1M-2 modules can be installed in the
Base Server.
Increased trunk capacity may impact the system administrator’s
programming planning and record-keeping activities.
Expanded echo cancella-
tion options
The Echo Profiles folder in DB Programming provides options
for eliminating or reducing echo that may occur on a system’s
physical devices, such as trunks, endpoints, modems, etc. The
Echo Profiles folder contains all the default echo profiles in the
system and, as appropriate, devices can be programmed with
more acceptable echo profiles.
These expanded options provide more options to the system or
voice mail administrator trying to resolve unacceptable echo
issues at endpoints and other physical devices.
