Features and Compatibility
1-2 Feature Overview
■ Maintain a direct connection with Lucent Technologies’ Remote
Services Center (RSC) to spur immediate support for
maintenance problems
■ Ensure the stability of services by automatically backing up data
on removable optical disks (also called
MO disks)
■ Save money with a small voice messaging system that resides in
the customer’s switch
Savings from A Smaller System
The space the DEFINTY AUDIX system Release 4.0 requires from the
customer’s switch has decreased from previous releases of the system
by 60%. The system now only requires two universal port slots in the
customer’s DEFINITY switch or one slot in a Compact Modular Cabinet
(CMC),
2 while previous releases required five slots.
For smaller switches, such as the CMC, a voice messaging system that
only takes one or two slots can make expanding the customer’s
telecommunications capacity much more efficient in the long run. With a
two-slot voice messaging system, customers can further expand their
telecommunications capacities—adding voice ports or local area
network (LAN) features, for example—before they must invest in switch
upgrades.
Features for the Subscriber
Subscribers can perform many tasks with the DEFINITY AUDIX system
that make communication faster, easier, and more convenient:
■ Store incoming and outgoing messages in a voice mailbox
■ Use a streamlined voice menu to speed through complex
transactions
■ Post multiple personal greetings on the system, which
subscribers can change according to their availability
■ Compose spoken messages with Voice Mail, which they can
send to one or more other subscribers on the DEFINITY AUDIX
system
■ Send messages to many recipients at once using mailing lists
■ Address voice mail messages by typing recipients’ names, rather
than their extensions, on their telephone keypads
■ Advance or rewind messages as they listen
■ Receive visual notification of new messages with message
waiting indicators (MWIs)—lights or display screens on
subscribers’ telephones that indicate new messages
2. For the system to take one slot, it must be installed in slot 6.
