3 anecdote(s)

ISDN switchboard, connecting 1 BA-ISDN and up to 4 analogue handsets (manufacturer: Agfeo). It only came with a brief user guide because … the full manual was never supplied as it was full of errors that would have made it impossible even for the customer to programme the system.

You could fit up to eight cards into a single Slide-Unit, and some of them were already pre-wired … it wasn’t a very practical system, but it did take up less space than hanging the standard BA units separately on the wall.
