-
SNMP Alarm Agent: Provides Meridian 1 alarm output capability to applications like Spectrum and HP Openview using the SNMP protocol.
-
Meridian 1 Mobility Server - Microcellular Option: Allows the use of standard digital cellular telephones for in building wireless applications. For handsets that support IS-54B; IS-136; and IS-94 standards. Provides automatic switch-over to the in-building service for cost effective wireless communication.
-
Meridian 1 Mobility Server Multi-Site Networking: Allows a cellular handset user to register at multiple locations so that they can use their handset at any location within a private ISDN network. The system will find the user if registered at any location and deliver calls.
-
Meridian Link Release 5: Adds the following functionalities to Meridian Link: Enhanced Reporting of Call Release (provides information as to why a call is disconnected), Hold/Unhold (allows Meridian Link to put call on hold and retrieve a call on hold), and ISDN Progress Messages for Outbound Calls (adds additional ISDN network messages to Meridian Link for outbound calls).
-
System Access Enhancements: Introduces additional security measures to increase OA&M security and to protect against toll fraud. Measures include: Limited number of attempts to enter PWD2, changes in default class-of-service, changes in default TGARs and TARGs, changes in default call forwarding, and the introduction of a security banner.
Improved Station Control:
-
Call Redirection by Time of Day: A station can be assigned to one of four customer defined schedules. Calls will be directed to their normal Busy redirect or Forward no answer redirect numbers during the normal work schedule and can be automatically directed to different numbers during alternate hours.
-
Call Forward Deactivation: Is a way to cancel forwarding of another telephone to your telephone. To cancel the forwarding, simply dial the Deactivation Flexible feature code and the number of the station that is forwarded to you. Benefit: More control of your station, avoids forgotten forwarding.
-
Called Party Control: Enhances Malicious Call Trace by maintaining a call connection until the station that has "control" hangs up, providing an opportunity to trace the call even if the caller has hung up.
-
M2216ACD Set Voice Parameters: Allows the system administrator to increase the maximum volume level on ACD telephones without impacting the other telephones on the system.
-
Meridian Mail Password Suppression: Blocks display of the Meridian Mail password when entering on a telephone. Requires Meridian Mail Release 11 Software.
Expanded Networking Capabilities:
-
E.164/ESN Numbering Plan Expansion: Increases the maximum number of digits allowed in the international numbering plan from 12 to 15. Though the Meridian 1 can currently support dialing the increased number of digits, this feature will expand the call screening capability and many number storage areas in the system where more than 15 digits are required like maximum autodial digits and call forward digits.
-
Trunk to Trunk Connection: Allows the connection of two outgoing external calls without staying on the call. Supports telemarketing and predictive dialing applications where an outgoing external call needs to be transferred to a second external number for processing. Configured on a customer basis.
-
Call Park & Page, Network Wide: Extends Call Park and Call Page capabilities across a network. Calls can be parked onto a telephone or System Park DN at a remote Meridian 1 location; allows a party outside of the Meridian 1 system where call is parked to retrieve a parked call by dialing the System Park DN through a DID or ESN dialing. Allows access to paging facilities at remote locations.
-
Virtual Network Services (VNS) Expansion: Allows up to 4000 non-consecutive virtual DNs to be configured for additional connections between Meridian 1 systems.
-
ISDN Q.Sig Compatibility: Introduces to North America an ISDN Primary Rate Interface standard for connecting multiple vendors' PBX systems. Introductory features include Basic Call Services, Calling Line Identification presentation and restriction and Name Display Services.
-
ISDN CLID Enhancements: Expands ISDN Calling Line Identification (CLID) ability to support multiple area codes (NPAs), central office codes (NXXs), Home Location Codes (HLOCs) and Local Steering Codes (LSCs). Allows virtually any number to be programmed against any DN key; allows any Listed Directory Number (LDN)/Departmental LDN to be used on a per DN key per set basis; and supports the flexibility of using 2-3 or 5-7 digit DNs.
-
ACD Queue Call Restore: Rebuilds an ACD queue after a system initialization. Saves a section of non-volatile memory to store the information. Rebuilds queue as new calls if INIT occurs.
-
Call Forward/Break-In/Hunt Internal & External Network Wide: Preserves the original status of a call as internal or external even if transferred throughout a network of systems. Ensures that the correct treatment is given to the call when presented to the final destination (e.g., internal or external ringing, forwarding, voice mail greeting).
-
Meridian Mail Trunk Access Restrictions: Prevents an external call from being conferenced or transferred into the Meridian Mail system. For systems that have been programmed to prevent external access to the Meridian Mail system, this feature will take this precaution a step further and prevent transfers into the system. The attendant still has the authority to transfer authorized calls into the Meridian Mail system.
-
CDR 100 Hour Call: Keeps an accurate CDR record for calls that exceed 100 hours. Some data calls exceed 100 hours and the expansion will track these calls. This feature will add a field to the Global CDR record (when CDR NEW is selected in the system data block).
