Re: Questions on setting up a new phone system

Thanks for the information. Looks like I will definitely get a
technician to help with the install. I just wanted to make sure that
it was necessary before I went that route. I am trying to learn as
much as possible about this, since I would like to do the support and
minor programming changes myself ocne the system is up and running. We
made an offer on a phone system and should have an answer by Monday.
The details are:

Toshiba DK424 Strata Cabinet with DKSUE424a expansion base
Voicemail with automated attendant (not sure on model or storage time)
(30) Toshiba DKT2010-SD Phones
(2) Polycom Speakerphones
It also has several line cards.

The system was purchased in 2001, and everything works perfectly. The
company got bought out and is closing the office. We have a verbal
acceptance on our offer, and are waiting for the final acceptance. The
offer was $850 and we disconnect the equipment. I did some checking on
Ebay, and it looks like the system would go for $3000+ depending on
what cards there are if it was parted out. I figured for the price we
couldn't go wrong, but if I find out that it doesn't suit or needs,
than we can always sell it on Ebay.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the Toshiba system? One thing I saw
was some conflicting information on the PRI access card. Some places
listed it for the DK424 and some places listed it for the DK424i. Does
anyone know if the DK424 will support the PRI card? We are planning on
going with the PRI lines, but have a couple other options at the same
recurring monthly charge.

Also, if anyone has a technician that they recommend in Cleveland,
Ohio, I would appreciate, I am not sure who I should use for the
initial config.

Thanks
