Links:
The
university operates an Ericsson MD110 PABX, a type which is distributed
across our five main sites and linked to a main group switch by leased
lines and fibre-optic cables. The installation is one of the largest
of its type in the south of England. We have in the region of over
2,500 extensions, and 50 incoming lines including Direct Dialling In
(DDI) capability.
The telecommunications department falls under the remit of Estate & Facilities
Management and as such provides the university with all its telephony
requirements which encompasses both fixed line and mobile communications.
We are a small but perfectly formed team, based in Watts Building and
we facilitate all telephony requirements throughout the university. We
also provide a welcoming voice and professional service to callers to
the university by way of our switchboard team.
Advice on the use of telephones and related equipment e.g. faxes, answering
machines, pagers and mobile telephones, is available through the Telephone
Systems Manager’s Office who should be contacted before any purchases
of equipment are made. Advice can be offered on compatibility with current
university systems; that new equipment is fully approved; and on other
technical considerations and costs. |
