A switch system for directing a call from a calling instrument to a receiving instrument. The switch system comprises a call originator unit that is electrically connected between the calling instrument and an outgoing telephone line. The switch system also includes a call receiver unit that is electrically connected between an incoming telephone line and the receiving instrument. The incoming telephone line is electrically connected to the outgoing telephone line.

Switch system for directing call from a calling to a receiving instrument

A switch device adapted to interface an incoming telephone line and an internal telephone system comprising a telephone, a facsimile machine, and an auxiliary device such as a modem, answering machine, or another telephone. The switch device automatically receives and answers incoming communications and asks for an identifying code from the caller which will characterize the incoming communication. After characterizing the incoming call, the switch device then alerts the telephone user or the facsimlile machine or the auxiliary device that there is an incoming communication. The non-alerted units are blocked out. A programming mode is provided to prioritize or selectively channel calls that are unidentifiable by the switch device to a preselected default device so that no incoming calls will be lost.
