Telephone entry intercoms are ideal for
many different applications. Since
telephone entry systems work through
the phone lines, intercom wires do not
need to be run. This makes this system
ideal for a retrofit OR a new system.
Ease of installation and ease of use
makes Telephone Entry ideal for your
next multi-unit application.
What is the difference
between ‘Phone-Bill’
and ‘No Phone-Bill’
Telephone Entry
Systems?
What is the difference between
‘Phone-Bill’ and ‘No Phone-Bill’
Telephone Entry Systems?
A ‘Phone-Bill’ (a.k.a. ‘dialer’) system is one
in which the tenant is charged a surcharge by
the phone company whenever a call is placed
to the apartment through the lobby (entrance)
or concierge panel. A ‘No Phone-Bill’ system
has added electronics that eliminate the call
surcharge. Most systems can be sold as a
‘Phone-Bill’ (‘dialer’) system the way they are
and can be easily changed to the ‘No PhoneBill’ type at any time.
