The Panasonic KX-TA824 is one of the best solutions for smaller businesses that do not require the advanced digital features associated with the KX-TD series, but still require the option of further expansion and growth. The KX-TA824 is initially configured for 3 CO lines and 8 extensions/stations, but up to two additional expansion boards can be plugged in to accommodate growth for a maximum configuration of 8 COs, 24 stations. The KX-TA824 integrates with all Panasonic KX-TVS voice mail systems. The KX-TA824 is based on the design of Panasonics successful KX-TA624 and features several significant improvements.
The KX-TA824 is the first Panasonic system to offer an optional, plug-in message card (KX-TA82492), providing each phone with it's own mailbox to take messages from callers. A message waiting light will be triggered when messages are left. The KX-TA824 can be used with the telephone companys voicemail too. The KX-TA824 will accomodate one telco voicemail box per line.
