Notebook function

During a phone call you can enter a phone number in the phone's temporary

memory to be dialled later.

NT/NTBA (NT 2a/b)

Network terminating device (NT = Network Terminator and NTBA = Network

Terminator Basic Access). The public ISDN connection is terminated with an NT. The

NT acts as a bridge to the existing telephone outlet. Only the NT can or may be

connected to the telephone outlet. Under no circumstances should analogue

terminals also be connected to the phone outlet. ISDN terminals and additional ISDN

outlets are connected to the NT. Analogue telephones must only be connected to

the analogue connections (a/b-Port) on the NT 2 a/b.

Open listening

At the touch of a key, all those present in a room can listen in to a phone call via an

integrated loudspeaker. See also "Handsfree".

Abbreviation for Personal Identification Number. Protects against unauthorised use,

e.g., system PIN, answering machine PIN, handset PIN.

Plugging to bus

TP, Terminal Portability. Also called parking. An incoming call can be held at the local

exchange for up to three minutes to then be accepted, for example, by another

phone, a fax machine or a PC. In the meanwhile the caller hears an appropriate

announcement.

Pre-dialling, see also "Block dialling"

For some telephones with a display you can enter the phone number first, and check

it once more before dialling.

Repeater

A repeater increases the range of a handset connected to a base station. The device

receives the radio signal from the base station and broadcasts it further.

S0 Bus

Four-wire ISDN connection wiring. This provides two B channels and one

D channel.
