Received a call to install an XBlue system. Never did one before never even seen one. Am I asking for trouble or is this a pretty do it yourself type system. Is it a hosted type system where I can use cat 5 from network to phone to computer. How does it program thru phone or lap top. Is it crazy to program or just read the manual or CD. Any information would be appreciated or should I just stay away. Thanks for any help Tony

All of XBLUE's Products are easy to install because they are fully operational as soon as they boot up and their website has most of their documentation for download. Also, their technical support people are great!

XBlue products are very good. At least the X-16 is. What system are you installing.

Keep in mind they purchased it from someone else. Get money up front because if theres problems you get blamed. Be careful. Make them understand your responsible for nothing.

I wouldn't be overly concerned chances are new or used its just fine , you'll get paid and learn a new product in the process
Kill Roy I always appreciate seeing the manufacture having enough interest in the product to comment online

The X16 is sweet and simple. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

What do you guys do for a portable on the X16? We have sold a few of these in small offices, but I just had a customer ask about having a portable on the system.

I'm almost sure there's no cordless for this system. Just use a regular cordless and attach to the dialtones directly. No intercom but that would be 1 way of doing it.

There isn't one, but as was stated previously, you can use any cordless phone (even a two-line one) connected directly to the CO lines as they connect to the system. The X-16 will detect the lines being in use and light up the buttons on the X-16 phones.

Thanks guys, that is kind of what I thought. Too bad they did not put just one analog port to use as a system extension. That should work though!

This thread has become a catch all. How about we start new posts?

The X16 uses Voice/Data over Voice or VDOV, which transmits both voice and data over the same frequencies. Making it almost impossible to transmit nonpacketized voice transmissions over the same channels. For now, you have to put analog devices in front of the X16 KSU.
