A music on hold adapter has an integrated analog adapter module which allows any and all of your phones to provide on hold audio content to ordinary analog and “KSU-Less” phone systems. Currently, when a caller is placed on hold with an ordinary phone, that call is routed back to your phone company. And there it sits.

One of our script consultants will review your script and verify pronunciations of any special terminology, as well as provide suggested verbiage improvements, if necessary.
