The SoundPoint IP Backlit Expansion Module for the SoundPoint IP 650 desktop phone is an optimal solution for telephone attendants – receptionists, administrative assistants, secretaries, and other “power users” who manage and monitor multiple simultaneous telephone calls on a daily basis. The SoundPoint IP Backlit Expansion Module augments the user interface of the SoundPoint IP 650 phone with a high-resolution graphical LCD with backlight and 14 multifunctional line keys that can be set up as a line registration, call appearance, or a speed-dial, direct station select (DSS) / busy lamp feld (BLF)1 key. The backlit display eliminates the need for external light sources and matches elegantly with the look and feel of SoundPoint IP 650 phone. Equipped with a high-performance attendant console, based on the SoundPoint IP 650 IP desktop phone and up to three SoundPoint IP Backlit Expansion Modules, the telephone attendant can reduce the number of lost customer calls, shorten transaction times, and increase the accuracy of call routing by promptly accepting, accurately screening, effciently dispatching and effortlessly monitoring calls. The SoundPoint IP Backlit Expansion Module also provides an easy transition from traditional PBX features and functionality into the world of Voice over IP with its large, backlit, high-resolution LCD, 14 illuminated multifunctional line keys, and user-friendly call visualisation similar to that on the SoundPoint IP 650 phone.
