  • Patent number: 11044362
    Abstract: Terminal information of a mobile terminal via the Internet is transmitted, and an outgoing reservation is made. Along with this, terminal information of a mobile terminal is transmitted from a telephone network to a telephone exchange apparatus of a company. The telephone exchange apparatus checks the terminal information of a call originator mobile terminal for which an outgoing call is reserved via the Internet against call originating terminal information arrived via the telephone network, and when the call originator terminal information arrived via the telephone network can be authenticated, the reserved call destination terminal is called with the company exchange apparatus as a call originator. When a user calls a customer from his/her mobile terminal phone, a telephone number of the personal mobile terminal is not displayed on a call destination terminal. Further, no troublesome operation for callback is required, and the communication cost charged to a company is reduced.

  • Patent number: 10721546
    Abstract: An incoming call controlling device (2) includes a connection determining unit (3) configured to determine, when an incoming call to a first phone number is received, whether a mobile phone terminal (6) is connected as an extension phone to the incoming call controlling device (2); an incoming call controlling unit (4) configured to transfer the incoming call to a second phone number when it has been determined that the mobile phone terminal (6) is not connected to the incoming call controlling device (2); and a caller information transmitting unit (5) configured to transmit, to a server (7), identification information and caller information of the incoming call when a transfer by the incoming call controlling unit (4) is performed. The server (7) is configured to notify a phone terminal of the caller information by using a network different from a circuit used for the transfer.

  • Patent number: 10165098
    Abstract: In a telephone switching apparatus equipped with an automatic call recording function, when recording of a call is started, a PB signal cannot be sent by operating a button any longer. Further, a user mistakenly assumes that there is a problem because the PB signal cannot be sent. Means capable of selecting, when recording means starts recording of a call, whether a PB signal is sent or not is provided, thus making it possible to send a PB signal.

  • Patent number: 10135998
    Abstract: A key telephone system includes a terminal and a primary device. The primary device transmits a command for transition into a power-saving state to the terminal, together with a power-saving duration time datum and/or a power-saving deactivating time datum, when the time reaches a power-saving state transition time. The terminal specifies the power-saving duration time and/or the power-saving deactivating time in the timekeeper means, and halts the communication means for communicating with the primary device at the time of receiving the command for transition into the power-saving state from the primary device, and activates the communication means being halted at a time when the timekeeper means has measured the lapse of the power-saving duration time and/or the power-saving deactivating time.

  • Publication number: 20100169425
    Abstract: A mail address acquiring section (423) acquires destination mail addresses one by one from received envelope information; a mail header processing section (424) deletes unnecessary destination mail addresses from a mail header; and an envelope generating section (425) generates envelope information for delivering mail data. In this way, it is possible to delete the unnecessary destination mail addresses from the mail header and to transmit the mail data individually to each of the destination mail addresses included in the envelope information. Accordingly, a sender of an electronic mail can transmit a broadcast mail without leaking mail addresses of others.
