installed in the S-ICX cabinet to support more than 3 parties in a conference.) During a 3-party 
conference, a digital intercom phone participant can establish a private conversation with one of 
the other parties, then rejoin both to the conference. Since the system is digital, there is no 
internal dB loss during a conference - but you can still program additional dB gain/loss settings 
for conference calls.
Benefits:
  Saves time and money associated with conferencing geographically-separated 
employees, customers, etc.
  Users can establish their own conference calls without auxiliary equipment.
CTI (COMPUTER TELEPHONY INTEGRATION)

information
  Allows computer applications to control telephone operation
DATA SECURITY
Description:
Data Security makes it possible to prevent interruptions on a phone. This feature is often used 
when the phone is hooked up to a modem, but it could also be used for confidential or sensitive 
calls. Data Security can be implemented for all phone usage, or it can apply only to outside line 
use.
Benefits:
  Protects data transmissions from being interrupted or cut off.
Applications:
  Modem phones
DELAYED RINGING
Description:
An incoming or transferred call, as well as intercom calls using the DN key, can be programmed 
to ring at a secondary answering position if the call rings the primary answering position more 
than a specified length of time. The call can be programmed to ring at one or more delay ringing 
positions (including phones with BLF keys). This feature also works with Direct Inward Dialing 
(DDI) calls.
Benefits:
  Ensures that a call does not go unanswered or ring for an extended period of time.
