Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description The E580-2 is a 5.8 GHz cordless accessory handset for use with AT&T's E5860, E5865, E5900B, and E5965C expandable phone systems (required, sold separately). These base systems support up to eight handsets, giving you the flexibility to place an extension wherever you need one, without an additional phone jack. By utilizing the 5.8 GHz band and frequency-hopping digital spread spectrum technology, the E580-2 offers clearer reception and less interference than traditional 2.4 GHz and 900 MHz models.
 |
| With just one phone jack, the system supports up to eight extensions throughout your home, depending on your base unit. |
Caller ID and call waiting compatible, the E580-2 has a 50-number caller ID memory, as well as image ID and personalized ringer options. The LCD with graphical display has an icon-driven menu to help you navigate the phone's functions, while a 50-number internal phone directory helps you to keep track of all your important phone numbers. Vibrating ringer and polyphonic musical ring tone settings are available, and a headset jack allows you to connect an optional headset for hands-free communication.
You can retrieve messages from the base unit using the handset, while the intercom feature allows you to speak with other handset locations. With conferencing, you can speak to multiple parties at the same time, and a call transfer function lets you route incoming calls to another handset. An illuminated keypad is provided for ease of dialing, and a low battery indicator lets you know when to return the base to its handset for recharging. Flash, hold, mute, and redial (last 10) buttons are also provided. The E580-2 comes backed by a one-year warranty.

Very good phone system,
By MrChuckP (mississippi) - See all my reviews
This review is from: AT&T E580-2 Accessory Handset with Color Display (E5800 and E5900 Series Expandable Phones) (Office Product)
Easy to set up and use, lot of features and has very good reception. I got the 5.8 verswion as opposed to the 2.4 version because it is not suppost to interfer with wireless lans. It has not. Only down side is that you have to enter a number in the directory into each handset. 3 hand sets three different entries. It would be nice to have the ability to down load a number directory from the base station to each Handset.

Extension Phones For AT&T For E5865,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: AT&T E580-2 Accessory Handset with Color Display (E5800 and E5900 Series Expandable Phones) (Office Product)
These units (up to 8) can be used to create wireless remote stations using the E5865 base unit. They require an electrical hook up but because they are wireless, the extensions do not need to connect to a phone line.We purchased two extensions--one installed 20 feet away and the other 30 feet. The installation went fairly painlessly and we have noted no drop out issues and the clarity is excellent. While the display screen is in color, I am not sure that adds anything positive to the equation-given the base units display is monochrome. In retrospect, perhaps we should have gone for the slightly cheaper monochrome units, as the color actually tends to be distracting at times. The total package works well and eleiminates the problem of having different phone types throughout the house--just the consistency between the units was a positive step for us. If the specs meet your needs and the price is right, they work as advertised and are recommended.

Whatever Happened to AT&T Quality?,
By Jeff S (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: AT&T E580-2 Accessory Handset with Color Display (E5800 and E5900 Series Expandable Phones) (Office Product)
After two days the color display failed. The display looked like an old film with vertical lines and no color.The inability to share phone books also was a BIG drawback. I think I would have tolerated that, if the display did not fail. For the price, I expect quality and features. Not getting quality, is unacceptable at this price range. I learned that AT&T really don't make these phones, VTech does. The Handset on this and the base unit E5965C do not fit the face well. Consumer Reports rated these phones high, but after using them for a week, I was really disappointed and returned the set for a refund. I am now considering the Panasonic KX-TG5776S.
