My Home PBX System - Tour and Demo

[@ian22222]

The phones match your house's look so well! It's cool to see older phones and the systems that run them.

[@JordanU]

Very neat setup. I run an Avaya Partner ACS unit in my house, the main purpose is to be able to receive calls through all my telephones from both my traditional landline and my cellphone through a Bluetooth landline adapter. The ability to use pulse dialing again was another big plus. Your kitchen is absolutely beautiful! I hope to be able to install pine walls like that in my house someday.

Very great set up Great job

This was fun. I subscribed a while back to figure out how to use our company's phone system to do a conference call.

[@carriageofnoreturn.1881]

A nice tour - thank you. I think you're wise to think about installing the phone booth in your basement rather than outside - it might be the only one for miles, and you'd forever have Superman stopping by to get changed in it.

[@423tech]

Oh no, there's no way I could fit it inside. The ceiling is too low. I'll figure something out like I always do.

I'm just getting into the home PBX hobby and currently have 10 phones (Yealink T31P) arriving from Amazon this friday!

[@423tech]

Welcome to the hobby! My hobby starting as a 13 year old has led to a very successful and lucrative career!

[@redengineer4380]

Love seeing this. I run an old Nortel Norstar in my home.

[@earlt911]

Great set up !! That 7407 is a massive phone..

[@423tech]

Oh, you just wait! I have a 7444 coming that's even larger. "They're getting closer!" "...and Leon's getting laaaaaaarger!" I hope you get that movie reference. 🤣 Thanks for watching!

[@MinifigNewsguy]

@@423tech the 7407 was an odd set. Well used. 7444 I think had more installs over time. The 7400s wasn’t discontinued until 1995, the modern/futuristic look lasted for obviously for a couple decades.

I know this is an older video, but I am just seeing it now. So envious you have this system in your house. I worked at a place that had these in a few locations, mostly replaced with avaya ip phones. So questions for you, can one 'controller' or whatever it is called provide a backbone for both these digital phones and also newer ip phones? It seems that is what happened in my former work place. Second question, you said the 7000 series digital phones could work with a two wire connection, would they then require an a/c adaptor at each location to provide ele.ctric power? Anyway, awesome stuff, love your tour, explanation and looking forward to watching more of your videos.

[@423tech]

The G650 was designed to be a branch gateway as far as I'm aware. Meaning you could put one of these at a remote building to connect on premise digital and analog phones to it that all go back to an IP based PBX somewhere else. As for the 7000 series phones, they work on 4 wire cards, not two wire. The 8400 series can work on either two or four wire cards.

[@ema9027]

Cool setup. I have a Toshiba Strata Ctx100 and DKT telephones in my house

[@423tech]

Nice, I have a ton of DKT phones and cabinets to get rid of lol

[@tpglitch]

What protocol are those phones? Pots? I use sip with freepbx what about you? They kinda look like landlines but somehow connected to pbs

[@423tech]

They are digital, TDM.

[@idahofur]

I have some smaller systems. Used a merlin 206, had a 410 box. Now I have Partner acs system. But replaced it with a ip office 500v2 partner edition.

[@tipoftheiceberg11]

What happened to your Merlin ringtone videos and your auto attendant video? They do not appear to be posted anymore.

[@423tech]

They're still there but they're unlisted.

[@jayshawncook1454]

So what the mitel phone for can you explain to me please

[@423tech]

My company provides it for my work use and it's unrelated to my perosnal system

[@TylerStartz]

Gee, it sure would be cool to have a guest and sing "Rock N' Roll McDonald" at 1AM through the intercom! 😂

[@423tech]

No.

[@jbclassics6053]

Just wondering, have you ever had a princess phone?

[@423tech]

Hi! I have several of those.

[@vrryan6]

I’m a big fan of nortel products and I happen to own an option 11c, the phones all use 2 wires and I really love the system but I’m always open to trying new systems.

[@423tech]

I've owned one too and didn't like the programming.

[@vrryan6]

@@423tech It took me a bit but i figured it out.

[@andyreed475]

@@423tech Night and day difference! Both very capable systems but the Nortel interface is mostly unchanged from the SL-1 days in the mid 70's.

[@Frenchairways824]

It does look like avaya

[@d0tbr3w]

awesome sauce

[@jeffmoss26]

Very cool

[@MinifigNewsguy]

IAA = the Internal Auto Answer function on the big Avaya PBX system!

[@423tech]

Yep, I believe in SAT its "int-aut-ans" or something like that

[@southernphonemanstelecom2634]

This is not a pbx. It is in fact a ksu or key system unit
