Analog telephony voice devices
•
The ATA supports analog telephony voice devices, such as overhead paging adapters and answering
◦
machines, that emulate a regular phone.
Overhead paging systems
•
Overhead paging systems provide alarms and public-address announcements in buildings.
◦
Fax machines
•
◦ Use a fax machine directly with an ATA. Don’t connect an extension to a fax machine, and don’t
use the fax machine with a splitter.
To reduce fax failures, use overseas mode, if available; if not, set the fax machine transmission
◦
speed to low.
Data devices, such as facsimile machines and modems, may not function optimally. For the best
◦
fax and modem performance, continue to use a dedicated PSTN line.
