Telephone Equipment

Basic Operation

There are several models of the ROLMphone available at U.Va., each of which can be equipped with data. The fundamental difference between a data phone and a voice-only version of the same model is that the voice-only model lacks:

  • the ability to transmit data when connected to the appropriate computer workstation or terminal
  • an RS232-C connection to the phone
  • an electrical power outlet on the phone

Answering machines will not work with the digital connections. PhoneMail is available as an alternative to answering machines. Or, you may install a ROLMphone 612 or 624 with an analog adapter.
