The XTS Digital Key Telephone System is a hybrid Key Telephone System, designed to meet the
telecommunication needs of medium or large sized business offices.
The XTS System incorporates state of the art digital technology for command processing and

The XTS achieves a high level of flexibility by:

System Design
The Key Service Unit (KSU) of the XTS is a wall-mounted cabinet that houses the MB (Mother

useful boards.
In this system, the first unit is Cabinet 0. Second and third units (Cabinet 1 and Cabinet 2)can
be added to increase capacity. The MPB should be installed in the fixed MPB slot in Cabinet 0.
To add Cabinets, the LMU1 should be installed in the fixed LMU slot in Cabinet 0. LMU2 can be
used in the fixed LMU slot of Cabinet 1 or Cabinet 2 and is connected with linked cable.

hardware. The software incorporates a vast array of features and capabilities including PC
Database Administration, Least Cost Routing, ACD, etc.

The XTS system supports numerous digital keysets and analog single line devices. With the
keysets, commonly used features are activated by direct button selection.

codes to Flexible Buttons on the keyset. In addition to key telephones, an optional DSS/BLF
Console is available.
With the flexibility of the XTS extensive feature content, and the capability to use an array of
