The Syn248® Business Phone System from AT&T is for businesses that need up to 100 extensions. This system is scalable from 1 to 39 outside lines, so as your business grows, your phone system can too. The Syn248 Business Phone System provides simplicity without sacrifice — it's simple to install, manage, and use, without sacrificing any of the features you need and expect from a business telephone system.
This chapter introduces the SB35031 Deskset and provides an overview of the Syn248 System and the external features of the Deskset.

Syn248 System Overview
Your Deskset is part of the Syn248 System. Syn248 differs from conventional telephone systems in that calls are not coordinated by a central controller. Instead, Syn248 uses a distributed control system over a Local Area Network (LAN). Figure 1 illustrates a sample system.
Deskset Overview
Figure 1. Sample Syn248 System
The SB35031 Deskset has a large screen and a built-in DECT 6.0 radio to host an optional cordless headset.
This User’s Guide describes how to register and use a compatible AT&T DECT cordless headset with the SB35031 Deskset. See “Registering an Optional Cordless Headset” on

Overview 12
Syn248 SB35031 Deskset User’s Guide Back to Contents
Each phone line connected to your system corresponds to a Line key on the Deskset as shown in Figure 2 on page 10. The Syn248 system can have up to 8 lines connected. The system administrator can configure your Deskset with up to four lines on which you can make and receive external calls. One key is reserved for “Intercom” calls to other Syn248 Deskset extensions.
Other Desksets in the system share these lines and display the line status. In general, incoming calls on a line ring at all Desksets that share that line. However, your system administrator can set your Deskset to ignore calls on a selected line. Your Deskset will not ring for calls on the ignored line, but you can still view call activity for that line. The Line key LED indicates whether a line is ringing, busy, or on hold.
The Line keys are used for receiving and making calls to external numbers. To call another extension in your office, you must use an Intercom key. By default, the Intercom key is the fifth key, but your system administrator can configure additional Intercom keys.
Setting Your Password
You can protect your Deskset by setting a password that prevents other users from accessing your User Settings and messages. If you create a password, you will need to enter it before accessing User Settings, messages, and the WebUI.
For more information, see “Setting and Changing Your Password” on page 99.

The Deskset provides several methods for making a call. You can also use an optional cordless headset to complete a call that you dialed on the Deskset.
If you are in Idle mode or have calls on hold, you can predial a phone number and then go off hook to call the number. You can make a call at any time by choosing an off-hook method, then dialing a number. This is referred to as live dialing. You can also predial or live dial using phone numbers from lists, such as the Directory, Call Log, Redial, Quick Dial, and Messages.
You can dial the extension for the system operator by dialing 0 (zero) on an Intercom line.
