)
stored program control digital electronic PBX. An introduction to the technical
characteristics is included, along with a description of available system applications.
System Overview
The NEAX2000 IVS
2
is a full-featured PBX providing a rich feature set of both Key
and PBX features. It is positioned to provide a more cost effective solution for the
small to medium size business, hotel property or networked environment. This system
allows users to purchase just the station and trunk capacity that they need, yet expand
that capacity by simply adding modules to accommodate added demand. The modular
design of the NEAX2000 IVS
2
allows the system to grow from 24 to 512 stations.
Hardware modularity results in one of the most reliable, flexible, and powerful
systems available.
The NEAX2000 IVS
2
is a microprocessor-based, stored-program-controlled, digital
communication system using the Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) technique. The
system is comprised of central equipment cabinets and telephones located throughout
the installation site. The central equipment cabinet is composed of Port Interface
Modules (PIMs). One to Eight PIMs may be installed, depending on the requirements
of the individual customer. The PIMs are designed for modular growth, stack
mounting (4 PIMs high), and quick interconnection. Each PIM provides 64 ports. The
universal port design minimizes the hardware required for a system, and provides
greater flexibility in the number and types of devices that can be installed.
