WHAT’S NEW WITH THE AVAYA PARTNER ACS R8?
New Features
Some of the most useful new features contain:
Network time synchronization â??This is fantastic for users who subscribe to digital or IP trunks using analog gateways. Sometimes providers of these types of lines have clocking in different time zones, and this can produce the incorrect time on your system. With the R8, all you have to do is turn off Network Time Synchronization and run your time on the systemâ??s internal clock. Problem solved. Caller ID on single line phones â?? This is a fantastic feature for ordinary areas that use single line phones with Caller ID well-matched displays. Thereâ??s no need to add an pricey system phone in these areas. Just buy a cheaper single line set at your local electronics outfitter. This feature is also fantastic when using devices like the Plantronics CT14 wireless headset. This ordinary wireless headset is often plugged into the adjunct port of a Partner 18D telephone for mobility. Now, you can see Caller ID information when youâ??re mobile. Message Alert Notification â?? Now you can program a button to alert you of voice messages at someone elseâ??s extension. If your office mate is on trip, then this is certainly an simpler way to take in his voice mail. Why walk over to his desk if you donâ??t have to?
Easily upgrade your Partner Plus or Partner II system
Does your programming erase whenever you have a power outage? Do you need more features? Is your current Partner Plus or Partner II phone system hanging on by a shoe thread? Well, if the answer to any of these questions is yes, then it may be time to upgrade.
Recoup your investment. An pricey tear-out and re-installation isnâ??t necessary. The Avaya Partner ACS R8 processor is well-matched with virtually all of the components in your current Partner Plus or Partner II system (1). Just power down, remove your current processor from the middle slot of your carrier, and slide the Avaya Partner ACS R8 processor in. With the upgrade, youâ??re now well-matched with the Partner ACS 308EC expansion module, so if you have any questionably functioning expansion modules, then you can swap these with the 308EC.
You will have to re-program the phone answering system (or your installer will), but thatâ??s a small price to pay for such an simple upgrade to a stuck-up system.
Well-matched devices contain:
Line/Station Modules â?? 200, 200E, 400, 400EC, 206, 206EC, 362EC, 308EC, 012E, ACS T1, and 1600 DSL modules System Telephones â?? Partner MLS-6/12/12D/18D/34D, Partner Eurostyle 6/18/18D/34D, and Partner Eurostyle Series 2 6D/18D/34D Voicemail Systems â?? Partner Mail VS 1.0/3.0/4.0/4.1/5.0, Partner Messaging R1/R6/R7, and Partner Voice Messaging PC Card R2/R3S/R3L
Powerful and inexpensive start for your small business
The Avaya Partner ACS R8 processor has five lines and nine stations built-in. This capacity covers most small business communication needs in one compact unit. Even better, voice mail is a snap. You can add up to 16 mailboxes and automated attendant with a PC card style voice mail that slides right into the processor.
With expansion capacity to around 15 lines and 40 stations (configuration dependent), the Partner ACS will grow when youâ??re business grows. Larger and more robust voicemail systems, the improved Avaya 3920 wireless telephone, music on-hold, and paging support provide your business with a well-rounded communication system that will never leave you small of features.
The Partner ACS is the most ordinary small business phone system in America. With millions of users, it has fantastic support. Many voice and data professionals are well versed in its installation and programming procedures, so youâ??ll have no problem contracting an installation. In addition, the lesser or used market for Partner equipment is enormous which is wonderful for the cost-conscious consumer. Refurbished phones, voicemails, and expansion modules can save you a fantastic deal of money.
With a new release and continued support, a cost-effective upgrade path, and a affluent lesser market, the Avaya Partner ACS R8 phone answering system is hard to beat.
(1) Partner ACS does not support the Partner II Expansion Unit (e.g. second carrier). 5-Slot carrier must be model 103F or greater.
