What type of Telephone System, PABX can solve this issue?
Posted by Answers CommunityPoints B and C are local, while A is a long distance station. I want to call from A to C. Now A and C are charged long distance. But I have a virtual hotline between A and B, which costs me nothing. At point B, I want such a telephone/pabx system, that can intake two phone lines, and one phone line, I use the A-B hotline for a free call to B, and use the other phone line to connect B to C (which will be a local call) so that effectively, my call from A to C becomes a local call also.
So here is how it should go: Sitting at A, I dial B on line 1 at B. Then I dial a predefined extension and the device at B uses line 2 at B to call C, and then let A talk to C using these two lines.
Any variation is also acceptable. Do such systems exist. What are they called. Where should I start looking for purchasing one.

Nortel's Meridian 1 (Option 11, 61 or 81) series PBX's can do that if you have the correct software. Conferencing analog lines such as the way you describe would impact the transmission levels and more than likely make the call very faint. If you had digital trunk lines this would make the transmission levels much better.
Look for a Nortel dealer in your area in the phone book or web. If you can't find one, contact Nortel directly. They will put you in touch with one.
