  The 824 can handle up to 8 lines. The 624 can handle up to 6 lines  
 
 
 

The KX-TA824 is the first Panasonic KX-T business phone system to offer internal voicemail, and a total of three voicemail options:

  1. Interface with Central Office (CO)-based Voicemail services, available from the local telephone company. Each outside line can be assigned its own phone company-based voice mailbox.

  2. Optional internal 2-port simple messaging card (KX-TA82492), which provides up to 60 minutes of recording time. This affordable solution provides each phone with a personal mailbox that can be customized to greet callers. When a message is left, the message light on a Panasonic proprietary telephone will be activated and the message can easily be played by pressing the message button. With this internal voicemail, no phone ports are sacrificed.

  3. KX-TVS50 or KX-TVA50 Voice Processing System: If you require a fully featured voice mail system with a built-in auto attendant the KX-TA824 can be connected to a Panasonic voice processing system utilizing APITS integration.
