Panasonic 5.8 GHz FHSS GigaRange Expandable Digital Cordless Phone With Talking Caller ID, Model KXTG5561M
Features:
- Up to 8 Handsets With Just One Phone Jack
You can put handsets all over your house-in your kid's rooms or even in the garage-without all the messy wiring or complicated setup. With our 5.8 GHz expandable phone systems, you don't need a phone jack for each additional handset-just one for the base unit. So start expanding and forget about all your wiring worries. - Long Range, Clear Sound, Minimal Interference
Our 5.8 GHz Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum technology operates on a different wavelength with much less traffic than the 2.4 GHz technology while maintaining the great security, incredible clarity and long range. Have a wireless computer network, or thinking about getting one? 5.8 GHz technology will not interfere with wireless networks such as 802.11b or 802.11g WiFi. - Hear Who's Calling Without Getting Up
With Talking Caller ID1, you don't have to get up to see who's calling-the phone will tell you. Panasonic cordless phones are the only cordless phones to incorporate true text-to-speech technology used in conjunction with your Caller ID service. There's no need for preprogramming or any fancy setup-as long as you have Caller ID service, just plug-and-play! Now you won't be interrupted by strange calls when you're washing the dishes, eating dinner or just watching TV. Let the phone tell you who's calling, so you can decide if you want to answer it or not. - Customize Your Ringer with Your Favorite Songs
This expandable phone system lets you upload unlimited free recordings of your favorite songs or sounds that you can set as your telephone ringer. All you need is the included audio cable and the music or sounds. Maximum recording time is 2 minutes. - Kids Sleeping? The Antenna Will Signal You Silently!
This year, we've found a way to shorten the handset antenna while still maintaining the long range that Panasonic customers have become accustomed to. But what's even cooler is that the base of the antenna - which lights up - will alert you to an incoming call (or a message waiting for you2). Select from blue, green, amber or multi-color options. The light-up indicator will flash quickly to show that you have an incoming call, and it will flash slowly to let you know you have a new message in your voice mailbox. So turn off the ringer, let the kids sleep, and never miss a call. - Put the Phone Down While You Talk
Having a handset speakerphone may not seem like such a big deal-until you have to call an automated phone system. By the time you press "2" and return the phone to your ear, you missed half the next option! And when they put you on hold for ten minutes, do you really need to hold the phone? Not with the handset speakerphone. Just listen along, and press a button or pick up when it's convenient. You'll think up other great uses, like letting Grandma and Grandpa listen to their new grandchild at the same time, painting your nails as you talk to your best friend, or just being able to set the phone down while you talk. - (FHSS) Frequency Hopping Digital Spread Spectrum
This system randomly changes transmission frequency several times per second without causing cross-talk, enabling the use of multiple handsets. FHSS technology also enhances security due to the changing of frequencies. - Talking Caller ID
When a call comes in, the phone doesn't just let you see who is calling, it actually tells you who is calling. Using text-to-speech technology the caller's name is announced in between rings if name-and-number Caller ID information is available. - Customized Ringer
Use this feature for unlimited free recording of your favorite songs or soundsthat you can set as your telephone ringer. All you need is the included audio cable and the music or sounds. (Maximum recording time is 2 minutes.) - Call Waiting Caller ID
Can display the name and number of incoming callers, even if you're on another call. - Voice Enhancer
Helps clarify and improve sound reception creating a natural-sounding voice that is easy to hear and understand. The Panasonic Voice Enhancer Technology is able to simulate a band signal above and below the normal bandwidth limitations, achieving a sound which is close to the actual voice. - Light-Up Antenna with Ringer/Message Alert (handset)
The top of the antena on the handset will flash quickly to indicate an incoming call, and it will flash slowly to let you know that you have a new message. - Navigator Key
Lets you easily control the handset volume and ringer level, as well as the phone directory & dialer, Caller ID Memory and other advanced functions, where applicable. - Reversible Handset Charging
Lets you place the handset in the base with the keypad and LCD (select models only) facing up or down. Charging occurs in either position. - Dual Keypads
Lets you dial from the base unit so you can make and answer calls without using the handset. - Phone Directory and Dialer Stations
Up to 50 names and telephone numbers (30 on certain models) can be stored and quickly accessed for dialing using the phone's navigator key. - Chain Dial
Search your phone book and dial a number you previously programmed during a phone call. This feature can be useful for those who frequently use "calling cards". - Phone Directory Sharing
Once you have programmed all your names and phone numbers into one of your handsets you can then share that directory with any other handset in the system. - Handset Locator
To locate a misplaced handset, simply touch a button on the base unit and the handset will ring. - Voice Paging (Base Unit to all Handsets)
Simultaneously page all handsets, in the system, by speaking through the base unit. - Lighted Handset Keypad
You don't have to fumble in the dark any more. Our lighted handset keypad allows for easy dialing in darkened rooms.
