International Capabilities
DEFINITY ECS provides features that allow for differences in telecommunication
standards around the world, allowing you to use the same communications system at
your various locations in other countries. If you are reading this book, it is likely that the
system has been type approved in your country. Check with your local distributor for more
information.
Public Network Call Priority
Provides call retention, forced disconnect, intrusion, mode-of-release control, and re-ring
to switches on public networks. Different countries frequently refer to these capabilities by
different names.
World Class Tone Detection
Enables the DEFINITY ECS to identify and handle different types of call progress tones,
depending on the system administration. You can use the tone detector and identification
to display on Data Terminal Dialing and to decide when to send digits on trunk calls
through Abbreviated Dialing, ARS, AAR, and Data Terminal Dialing.
World Class Tone Generation
Allows you to define call-progress tones. You can select values for frequency and
cadence. If you do not define a call-progress tone, DEFINITY ECS sends a default sound
for that call-progress tone that is based on your administered country code. For a very
few tones, that default may be silence, but for most commonly used tones, that default will
make a sound.
Administrable Loss Plan
Provides you with the capability to administer the loss or gain applied on calls. This
capability is necessary because some country regulations change about how much loss
is allowed on voice calls.
