Norstar 6x16 (Copper) System
The Norstar 6x16 Phone System is a great choice for any small business or busy household. With the capacity for 6 outside lines and 16 phone stations, the 6x16 is a feature-rich system that will give your organization years of trouble-free use. While the 6x16 has many sophisticated features commonly found only on more expensive phone systems, the system is still extremely easy to use -- the system actually tells you how to do things via the LCD display on each Norstar phone terminal. Requires a 6x16 software cartridge for operation, and is compatible with the M7000 series of phones.

Norstar 8x24 (Copper) System
The Norstar Modular 8x24 phone system is an easy-to-use yet feature-rich digital phone system. Fully expandable, it will grow as your business grows. Trunk and Station Modules can be added in the future to add to the capacity of the system. This expandable system is designed to meet the high growth potential of small and medium sized businesses. The basic 8x24 KSU expands easily by simple self contained add-on trunk and station modules. Any combination of six modules can be added to the KSU to a combined maximum of 128 total ports. An expansion card is required to add modules to the 8x24 KSU. Expansion cards come in either 2 module expansion or 6 module expansion. This expansion card plugs directly into the KSU. The trunk and station modules then connect to the expansion card with a single plug in cable. Station Module 0x16 provides for the addition of 16 station ports. The Trunk module 12x0 provides for a maximum of 12 trunk ports. The trunk module by itself does not provide trunk access. Trunk cards 4x0 go into the trunk module (maximum 3 trunk cards) per trunk module.

Norstar 3x8 DR 5.1 System with Power Supply
The Norstar Compact 3x8 DR5.1 phone system is a feature-rich system in a small package. Features 3 outside lines and the capacity for up to 8 phone extensions. Perhaps the best part about this system is the built-in Caller-ID system that displays the CLID information on the LCD of your Norstar voice terminal. Compatible with the M7000 series phones.

Norstar 3X8 simplifies communications and prevents dropped and abandoned calls. Transferring calls is easy. Simply announce the call and send it. If the other line is busy or unanswered, the call returns to you. Tones and Music on Hold assure callers to your company that they haven't been forgotten or disconnected. And with Held Line Reminder, you don't forget that important caller is holding. Discriminating Ringing makes it easy to distinguish between internal and external calls and respond appropriately. Paging enables you to quickly locate a co-worker by making an announcement through Norstar phones, auxiliary speakers or both. The Conference feature lets you quickly bring a third person into a conversation. And, if you're unsure how to use this feature, check your LCD Window for step-by-step instructions.

Compact ICS (CICS) System
The Norstar Compact ICS (CICS) is a powerful business phone system that can accommodate the demanding needs of a busy office. The CICS is compatible with all Norstar digital phones, and comes packaged with an innumerable amount of standard features.

The Compact ICS can be configured from 4 trunks and 8 stations to 8 trunks and 24 stations. The control unit has two universal slots, one of which is populated when shipped with a 4 Line LS/DS Analog Trunk Cartridge. The remaining universal slot may be populated by either a second LS/DS Analog Trunk Cartridge; a 4 Line Caller Identification Trunk Cartridge; or, any of the ISDN BRI interface cartridges (2 port U, 4 port U or 4 port S/T). The control unit is equipped with 16 TCM digital station ports and one analog station port. There is an additional expansion slot which may be populated by either the Combination Services Cartridge (giving both expansion from 16 to 24 stations, and clock control when digital trunking is being utilized), or the Services Cartridge (giving only clock control when digital trunking is being utilized).

Norstar Modular ICS (MICS) System
The Norstar Modular ICS (MICS) telephone system is a fully expandable and flexible system that will not only be a workhorse in your office, but also has the capacity to expand as your needs grow. It will grow in both size as functionality, so your initial investment is always protected.

Voice Mail, Call Center Applications, integrated mobility, Internet access, ISDN and Desktop CTI are just a few of the options that can be added to your system for greater service to your business. All additions to the system integrate seamlessly into the operation of the MICS.

However, just because this system has robust features, doesn't mean that simplicity is sacrificed; the Modular ICS retains Norstar's trademark easy-to-use design.

A Few Tips & Hints
Unplugging the gray cord coming from the system and voicemail is the best form of reset. However, if the system acts up, there is a power outage, etc you can safely unplug the power cord. Unplug for 30 seconds, then plug in, and wait 4 to 5 minutes, sets all flash, then time and date will come back on the display. Voicemail takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes to reset.Please before you move any telephone set: that you understand that the memory and extension is in the system i.e. the jack, not the set, so you could lose programming if moved without the system being told to allow the set to move.
