Overview

Improve the Lines of Communication in Your Home with a Panasonic KX-TA308 Telephone System
You have a thriving home business, two kids who love to talk on the phone, three telephone lines, two computers, CO based voice mail service and a fax machine. Needless to say, the lines of communication in your home are quite complex.

Expressly designed to streamline home communications, a KX-TA308 System organizes your phone lines into a cohesive system and makes a host of advanced features available to each extension in your home. This new, easy-to-install telephone system comes with a modular Plug-and-Play design using RJ14 plugs, and it has basic station programming done at the factory, so the system is basically ready to use right out of the box. With a KX-TA308 System all of your residential, home office and fax lines can be accessed from any system phone jack. You can make room-to-room intercom calls, forward your calls to an outside location, monitor a room, page all system extensions and more.

All three of the new Panasonic phones made for the KXTA308 system contain 12 flexible Central Office (CO) Feature Buttons that are preprogrammed at the factory for one-touch outside line selection and station intercom dialing. The KXTA30850 is a basic system phone with monitor speaker, the KX-TA30820 includes a speakerphone and the KX-TA30830 includes a speakerphone and a backlit single line LCD display. They all have a beautiful contemporary design, and all three models are available in either decorator white or charcoal black.

System Features

Room-to-Room Intercom
Finishing up some paperwork in your home office and need to find out if your child is ready for soccer practice? By using the room-to-room intercom feature, you can call them in their room and get the answer you need without leaving your desk.

Auto Answer
This convenient option, for calls made from internal extensions only, lets the user answer a call instantly without picking up the receiver. When a call comes in, a beep will notify the receiving party and they can just start talking. This can be quite useful when the user's hands are not free to handle the phone or push buttons.

Room Monitor
Allows you to silently monitor a room from any system phone in the house. The room being monitored must contain a proprietary system phone with a built-in speakerphone.

Central Office Voice Mail Service Compatible
If you subscribe to phone company voice mail service the user's phone messages are stored in their voice mailbox at the phone company's central office (CO). Each outside line can be assigned its own CO voice mailbox. When a voice mail message is left on any one of the three outside CO lines, the large message-waiting LED will flash on each system phone and the associated outside CO line button will also flash. By simply pressing the flashing outside CO line button and the "message" button on any extension, the user can access their messages at any time. And, by preprogramming a local access number, up to 24 digits, the user can avoid having to manually dial the number every time they want to retrieve a message.


Caller ID1
The KX-TA30830 has a backlit, single-line LCD display that can alternately display the name and number of the incoming call (if provided by the local phone company). It can also show the name and number of an incoming call, even while you're on another call.

Door Phone & Door/Gate Opener
The KX-TA308 system has a built-in Doorphone and Door/ Gate Opener Adapter Card which will add security to your home. With these options installed, our Advanced Hybrid Telephone Systems can interface with one or two door intercoms and control one or two electronic door contact closures. If you have more than one door intercom, you can assign each a unique ringing pattern2 to help you distinguish which one was pressed. You can also use the adapter cards to remotely control any compatible devices such as an electric door strike for opening doors.

System Speed Dial
Lets you program frequently called numbers into the system for quick and easy dialing from any system phone.

Single-Line Device Integration
The KX-TA308 system allows you to connect many types of single-line telephone devices such as answering machines, cordless phones, fax machines and computer modems, without the need for additional cards or modules. You save money by using equipment that you already own and by avoiding upgrade

Add a cordless system phone for productivity and mobility.
The KX-T7885 cordless phone uses 900 MHz operation and Panasonic Sound Charger™ technology for great range and crisp, clear sound. Model KX-TD7895 adds Digital Spread Spectrum technology for even longer range and protection from eavesdropping. Both models feature flexible keys that can be programmed to access central office outside lines or system functions like speed dialing direct to other extensions. They also have fixed keys for intercom, hold, redial, conference and transfer functions.

Toll Restriction
This feature lets you prohibit certain outgoing calls by restricting selected system extensions from accessing specified area codes or exchanges.

Flexible Ringing Assignment
Allows you to program which phones will ring on each line.

Conferencing
Allows you to combine two calls from two different lines together, so you can talk to both parties at the same time.

Background Music
