Different Types Of Phone Installation Available

By Tony Dunphy


As a business customer, you know the time is of the essence, but what if you need to install a new phone line? How long will it take for installation? Following is a breakdown of what it will take to have Australian phone lines installed for your business, by type of installation:

Phone lines ISDN 2

As the most popular of the digital phone line installation methods, IDSN 2 works with so-called "paired channels," meaning that you can install phone lines two at a time. Each installation will take between 10 and 15 business days to complete, and you can also add and you can add Line Hunt or DID options as extras. There's more information on this type of installation, here.

ISDN lines, 10/20/30 setup

10/20/30 IDSN phone lines have multiple channels, utilizing 10, 20, or 30 lines in each group; midsized to large businesses do well with this type of set up, but it will take a little bit for installation, between 20-25 business days. Take a look at the available features and more information on10/20/30 ISDN, here.

PSTN phone lines

SMEs use these phone lines, which are standard Australian installation setups. Also called POTs or "Plain Old Telephone Service" lines, you can add Line Hunt capability or ADSL if you wish. You won't have much wait time for installation, as installation happens in between 3 and 10 business days.

Line Hunt install

Installing Line Hunt capabilities means that you can distribute phone calls from just one phone number to several associated phone lines. Install this service when you install a new number, or add it later as you need it.

Hosted PBX

If you have ADSL installed, you can have PBX hosted lines operational almost instantaneously. It takes a little bit to get equipment, but installation is easy thereafter. You should be up and running in between 3 to 8 business days.

IDSN, Multiline

Multiline IDSN is somewhat the same as IDSN 10/20/30, but simpler. You can start with just a few lines (10 minimum), and then add single lines as needed instead of groups of 10, as you must with IDSN 10/20/30. Wait times for installation are about 20 to 40 working days.
