System Features


ESI S-Class System Features

Full integration - With an IVX business telephone system, just one compact cabinet does what other systems must combine multiple boxes to do.
Grows with your business or organization, with up to:

  • 16 lines
  • 32 digital stations
  • 8 fully functional analog ports
  • Six built-in voice mail ports
  • 30-hour voice storage
Feature Phone

Digital Feature Phone

  • Three versions: 48-Key, 24-Key and 12-Key
  • Fully digital 2B+D
  • Stylish and compact, to fit any workspace.
  • Convenient four-position tilt mount; also wall-mountable.
  • Simple installation with one-pair, non-polarity-sensitive wiring.
  • “Ruggedized” design resists abuse and spills.
  • Big, easy-to-read display with as many as three high-contrast lines. Provides various combinations of the following, depending upon the system model and configuration, the ESI Feature Phone model and the current operation:
  • Date and time
  • Current line usage
  • Phone number dialed
  • Name of caller
  • Elapsed time on current call
  • Remaining time on currently playing message or recorded call
  • Dedicated feature keys; Esi-Dex™ (indexed speed-dialing) keys; and up/down keys for independent digital control of speaker and handset volume.

Background announce - Privately hear intercom messages while talking to outside calls.
Two conference bridges - Accessible from either digital or analog ports; each able to handle either three or four people.
Off-premises “reach-me” - Allows a caller forwarded to the Integrated Answering Machine or your voice mailbox to reach you at an external number (e.g., your home phone or mobile phone).
TAPI support, for using your PC and your telephone as a team

Virtual Answer Key™ - For use when one is already on another call but wants to give special attention to a second call that’s in call waiting. Set as many as two programmable feature keys to be Virtual Answer Keys. Each plays a recorded greeting telling the caller the user knows he/she is calling and, depending on programming and how the prompt is recorded, can also give the caller an easy way to dial out to another extension where he/she can gain immediate assistance.
One-touch access to a number of features - Why enter arcane codes when you can just press VOICE MAIL to get into voice mail? Or CONF to do a conference call? Or TRANSFER to transfer a call? The IVX way is the easy way.

Compaitable Products

Compatible Products of the S-Class
ESI Link VoIP ESI-Link uses your WAN or the Internet to join together up to 100 compatible ESI phone systems into one interconnected, IP-based system. While ESI wasn’t the first company to offer a multi-site solution, it was the first to offer one that unites the many advantages of multi-site communications (see full details) with the unique, high-performance features of ESI phone systems.
ESI Presence Management Doorphone ESI Presence Management is a hardware and software solution incorporating an innovative combination of RF scanning technology and ESI’s award-winning telephone systems. ESI Presence Management is offered as a basic doorphone solution for addressing basic entry and exit applications, and as an advanced supervisory solution utilizing RFID technology to provide access control and personnel location. Optional ESI TimeLine™ PC software maximizes the value of this amazing product.
ESI Cordless Handsets ESI Cordless Handset uses proven, reliable 900 MHz technology to provide mobility to the user who’s constantly on the move in the office. (Why 900 MHz? Because it passes through walls far more effectively than cordless telephony using the 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands, which are intended more for residential than workplace use.) You get the same rich ESI feature set as in the 24-Key Feature Phone — but in a compact, lightweight, portable handset. The ESI-exclusive Quick Switch feature makes going from your desktop ESI phone to your Cordless Handset, or back again, as easy as pressing a key.
ESI VIP ESI IP (Visually Integrated Phone), you combine the power of your ESI phone system and Microsoft Outlook to enhance communication in your day-to-day activities — including the ability to control calls and organize voice mail and contacts. ESI VIP Professional VIP comes in two “flavors”: the basic VIP and VIP Professional. Each configuration is licensed independently, with easy migration from VIP to VIP Professional.
ESI PC Attendant Console ESI PC Attendant Console Handling an active office’s phone traffic is an incredibly demanding task, particularly for an attendant who has other duties as well. That’s why we’ve created ESI PC Attendant Console. Built on the incredibly full-featured VIP Professional software platform, ESI PC Attendant Console is ready to give even the busiest attendant the tools to handle call traffic and help keep the office running smoothly.
