NEC's legendary reliability and quality standards are evident in the DS 1000/2000 innovative 32-bit architecture. This new concept features Digital Signal Processor (DSP) Technology, on-board flash memory and field software upgrade-ability. The basic DS 1000/2000 system is available with 3 lines, 8 key telephones and 4 standard touchtone phones. It is easily expandable to 6 lines, 16 key telephones and 8 standard touchtone phones by adding an expansion card. You can grow the system as you grow your business - while keeping your initial installation investment in station equipment intact.
All this new technology does not come at the expense of easy installation! Easily wall-mountable cabinets, removable access covers and simplified one-pair wiring mean your initial installation and future add-ons will be quick and economical.
The DS 1000/2000 builds on its base of experience with a totally revamped and redesigned feature set that further enhances the ease-of-use in its digital predecessor. The DS 1000/2000 brings a new level of speed and sophistication to the features you've come to expect from a NEC phone system.
Busy offices can always keep pace with productivity features like Caller ID, Last Number Redial, Speed Dial and Hotline. Getting through to busy co-workers is never a problem thanks to extensively redeveloped Call Waiting, Voice Over, Reverse Voice Over and Off-Hook Signaling. Larger firms have a bevy of workgroup features from which to choose, such as Call Coverage on any phone, Extension Hunting, Group Call Pick-up and Multi-Party Conference. As the demands on the phone system increase, DS 1000/2000 is right there with advanced features like full NVM-Series Voice Mail Integration (highlighted by Park and Page, Conversation Record and Answering Machine Emulation).
The DS1000/2000 features a family of telephones that sets the new standard in office communications:
NEC's legendary reliability and quality standards are evident with the introduction of the new, fully integrated, flash memory based IntraMail voice mail systems for use with DS 1000/DS2000 system. IntraMail is available in two different sizes for your voice mail needs: a 4 port/4 hour system, or an 8 port/8 hour system.
IntraMail builds on NEC's base of experience with voice mail systems to offer a sophisticated yet easy-to-use feature set that enhances ease-of-use in its voice mail predecessors. IntraMail brings a new level of speed and simplicity to the features you've come to expect from an NEC voice mail system.
Full integration means that IntraMail installs inside the DS 1000/2000 common equipment, does not require the optional expense of analog station ports for connection to the system and does not require a separate power supply. Also, IntraMail will show you the number of messages in your mail box as soon as you enter your mailbox, and will flash a message waiting lamp on your phone when you have a new message.
In addition, full integration allows IntraMail to supply interactive voice prompts to key system users. For example, when an extension user dials an intercom number not in use, they will hear a voice announcement that says, "The number you have dialed is not in service."
One of the most useful aspects of this full integration is the interactive "soft" keys shown on display telephones which let you manage your voice mail without having to remember dialing codes. For example, to exit your mailbox after you've listened to your messages, simply press the softkey that says "EXIT".
IntraMail's Automated Attendant saves you and your customers time and money. Incoming calls are answered quickly with greeting messages that can change depending upon the time-of-day and/or day-of-the-week. Greeting messages can be tailored to provide callers with dialing instructions such as "Dial 1 for sales, 2 for service or stay on the line to speak with an attendant."
Busy offices can always keep pace with productivity features like Caller ID with Return Call. Since the Caller ID number is associated with the voice mail message (if Caller ID is supplied by your local telephone company), it makes returning calls to people who have left messages in your voice mail mailbox that much easier.
Fax detection can save you even more money. Now there's no necessity for a separate line for your fax machine. IntraMail can listen for a fax tone on an incoming call, and if it hears a fax tone it will automatically transfer the call to the extension where your fax machine is installed.
If you've ever had calls during which you can't take notes fast enough, or had the necessity to record important information so it can be reviewed later, the IntraMail has the solution for you. Conversation Record lets you record a conversation into your mailbox, review that conversation later and forward it to another extension after your review.
