Bought a mini phone exchange of ebay, didn't quite know what I was
getting,

Er, well! Sling the left hand two boxes, they're not required for the
system to function. Follow the link on the other reply and away you
go.

Did you get any Telephone sockets with the system as these are back to front
compared to "normal" BT sockets.

Mmm, Marquis ... two places I worked had them and in both places I could
hardly comprehend the caller, the audio quality was so bad. One of my least
favourite phones systems of all time I would think.

This seller has some Marquis phones -- as he appears not to have the control
unit they may not attract much interest -- if you want to throw more money
at the project.

I think the Streamline unit is some form of Cable and Wireless prefix
dialler for least cost routing and could be ignored.

The left-hand-latch sockets needed for the plugs on the extensions used to
be stocked by RS.

Yes, wall sockets were included along with the phones. The web site should
help with the programming.

Many thanks

To do with call routing, they are of no use unless you have the
appropriate carriers set up on your line, which you won't as they are
generally programmed for a specific site. I've chucked loads in the
skip as it's easier than trying to get them to do anything remotely
useful.

Well, if you get to give up point, hopefully you wont, but if you do
you can implement a crude phone exchange using just an answerphone.

There's a seller now on Ebay offering installation instructions.
