1.10.8 Paralleled Telephone

Description
By connecting telephones in parallel, you can increase the number of telephones connected to the PBX
without adding additional extension cards.

proprietary telephones (APTs) can be connected to other telephones or connectors, allowing two
telephones to be connected to the PBX through just one extension port. Additionally, portable stations (PSs)
can be linked to other telephones wirelessly and be used as a "paired" extension.
