Do ATA's pass Caller ID info ?

[randyvegas]

If a CID compatible device (cordless, etc ) is connected through an ATA can it receive the Caller ID info (assuming a CI card is in the switch ).

Okay, I found in other threads, that they do NOT pass CID... Bummer

I guess I'll have to wire in a "cordless" jack BEFORE the switch. Unless there's a better way. ?

look into if a 7406 set does or not.

NT doesn't believe they should have that feature. Just like the ATAs don't have open loop supervision. NT would prefer if nobody used single line analogue hardware...

T7406 & T7406E's do because they emulate an M7310.

that's what I thought JP.

Yeah, but 7406's are a little spendy and this guy wants sleeker, smaller cordless phone to use.

Also wants to hook up a fax machine which logs the caller ID info for him (legal reasons)..

looks like a digital set of some kind is your only option. Suggested 7406 seeing as u wanted a cordless. The other option is to get a dedicated phone line that doesn't run thru the Norstar and connect it directly to call display enabled cordless.
