The KX-TGA271B is a cordless handset for use with Panasonic's KX-TG2700S, KX-TG2720S, KX-TG2730S, or KX-TG2740S expandable cordless phone systems. The phone uses 2.4 GHz frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology so that multiple handsets can be used with reduced cross-talk or eavesdropping, since the FHSS technology randomly changes frequencies several times per second. The unit has a digital-duplex speakerphone on the back of the handset for convenient, high-quality, hands-free conversations. Using call waiting/caller ID (with paid service from your phone company), the handset's LCD will display the name and number of incoming callers even when you're on another call. It also saves up to 50 incoming calls for easy retrieval and direct callback.
A four-line backlit LCD shows call status, programming options, directory items, and up to three lines of caller ID information, so there's no need for scrolling. Backlighting greatly aids visibility especially in low light areas.
With four-way conferencing you can conference in one outside line on up to four other handsets simultaneously. Use the intercom function to listen to what's going on in any room that has a handset, and from the base unit or a handset, you can call any other extension in the system.
Personalize your ring tone with any of six selectable rings to alert you when there is an incoming call. Using the provided headset jack and belt clip, you can also connect an optional headset to the standard 2.5 mm jack for hands-free conversations.
