Teltone's LSS Line Sharing Switch eliminates the cost of extra lines at your remote site. Calls can be initiated from either the host or remote location, allowing the line to be shared dynamically between multiple devices.

In addition to the inherent telephony savings benefit, the LSS offers the following key features:

Emergency Access Piority

When immediate telephone access at the remote location is needed during a polling session, personnel can break the connection and use the line if you authorize such calls. Teltone's Line Sharing Switch can be programmed to properly end the data session and quickly give the caller priority. The unit supports three priority configurations:

Emergency Priority: If data transfer is in progress, the telephone receives a dial tone generated internally by the Line Sharing Switch. The dialed digits are screened for "allowed" or "disallowed" numbers. (For example, 9-1-1 emergency calls could be allowed, but personal phone numbers disallowed.) When the Line Sharing Switch detects an "allowed" telephone number, it properly halts data transfer and frees the phone line for the telephone user.

Total Priority: When a caller goes off-hook, the Line Sharing Switch halts data transfer and gives immediate access to the line. This option can be used to interrupt polling sessions for credit authorization calls.

No Priority: The line is not available to the telephone user or other ports when a data transfer session is taking place.

Quick Payback

Teltone's Line Sharing Switch and Polling Controller easily pay for themselves in less than one year, based on typical business telephone line rates. In the longer term, the high quality design and tested reliability of the units ensure that they will pay you back with years of trouble-free service.
