Other supported features
In addition to the features described in the previous sections, the Remote
Gateway 9150 unit also supports the following features:
Fax support
The Remote Gateway 9150 unit contains one analog port that can be used to
send and receive faxes. You can send and receive faxes in both host- and locally
controlled call modes over the IP or PSTN.
To support faxing through the host PBX, the fax port on the Remote Gateway
9150 unit must be associated with a port on the RLC that is configured on the
host PBX with voice capability.
Emergency activation code
If your community has implemented an emergency service number (such as 911)
to call the police, fire department, or ambulance, you can configure that number
on the Remote Gateway 9150 unit. This allows users in your office to dial the
emergency number and be connected directly to the local emergency dispatch
center through the PSTN. The call is automatically routed through the local
PSTN without having to dial a local trunk access code.
When you configure an emergency activation code on the Remote Gateway
9150 unit, you also prevent the call from being automatically routed through the
host PBX. This is because the PBX can be in a different city. An emergency call
that is routed through the host PBX can result in emergency support being
dispatched to the wrong location.
ATTENTION!
If you are using only the IP network to route calls, place
emergency service calls on a telephone that is directly
connected to a PSTN line. If you place an emergency
service call from a station that is connected to the Remote
Gateway 9150 unit, the call is routed through the host PBX.
If the PBX is in a different city, the call contacts the wrong
emergency services.
