number. They're RS-232, but they're a bit funky to get to work with
anything else; I don't remember the details, but it seems like they used
really odd settings - like 6 bits, mark parity, 2 stop bits. Also, the
attached phone only works with Northern Telecom phone systems, unless you
were to gut the whole thing and stick the electronics from a one piece phone
in them.
Hm, this part's interesting -- while I'm sure there *were* models that
were only PBX-aware, an old neighbour of mine used to work for Nortel
and had one at home, so now I have to find out if they were produced
in any quantity :-/
