Technical details
How many phones can I have?
All items of telephone equipment have a Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN), which is used to calculate
the number of items which may be connected to any
one telephone line. Your BT3560 has a REN of 1.
A total REN of 4 is allowed. If the total REN of 4 is
exceeded, the telephones may not ring. With different
telephone types there is no guarantee of ringing, even
when the REN is less than 4.
Any additional handsets and chargers that you
register have a REN of 0.
Connecting to a switchboard
Switchboard compatibility
This telephone may be connected to most types of
switchboard, however in the event of any difficulties,
consult your switchboard Service Provider.
Recall (R)
Recall is used when connected to certain
switchboards/PBXs and some BT Calling Features, or
those services available via your network provider.
The BT3560 supports time break recall but not earth
loop recall.
