Products covered include simple and complex phone systems, voicemail, auto-attendant, headsets, back-up power, music on hold, cordless phones and more. There are extensive sections on telecom terminology, technology trends, choosing a phone system, phone system features, wire and cable, installation and troubleshooting.
