Telecommunications Services for Schools and Departments
The majority of the Medical Center locations are supported by the NORTEL SL-100 Telecommunications
system using Meridian multi-lines phones. The Meridian phones have a variety of features and functions
that can be ordered in different configurations to meet specific requirements. Single line phones and
analog lines (for fax, modems, and veriphones) are also available on the system.
Please see below for basic Telecommunications help and services, or select a link to the left for more detailed information.
