The 40-2421 from VTech is a four-line, multi-user expandable phone system designed for the small office or busy home. It consists of a base unit, which supports up to four phone lines, and one cordless handset. As your needs grow, you can add up to 11 model VT 40-2420 handsets, for a total of 12. Each handset/charger stand can be placed anywhere you have a power outlet, eliminating the need for additional phone jacks and complicated wiring procedures. The intercom feature lets you communicate with other handsets, while the call transfer function provides a convenient way to route incoming calls from one handset to another. The conference feature allows you to communicate with multiple outside parties, or conference-in an additional handset.
The 40-2421 utilizes 2.4 GHz digital spread spectrum technology, which provides clearer reception over larger distances than traditional cordless phones operating on lower bands and transmitting an analog signal. Call-waiting and caller ID compatible, the phone stores up to 50 numbers in memory, while the speed dial feature lets you quickly dial the 20 most frequently used numbers. A headset jack and handset speakerphone offer comfortable hands-free options.
Handset and ringer volume controls are provided, as are both tone and pulse dialing modes. With the auto pick-up setting turned on, you can answer calls simply by removing the handset from its cradle. A visual voicemail message indicator alerts you when you have messages waiting. (Voicemail, call waiting, and caller ID require subscriptions through your local phone company.) The 40-2421 comes backed by a one-year limited warranty on both parts and labor.

excellent for a small business.......2007-01-08
I love this phone!.......2006-09-20
First I like V-Tech because their battery life is longer. I've bought non-brandname batteries, when I could no longer get them from V-Tech, and in the V-Tech phone, they just last longer than all the other 2.4 GHz phones I've used.
(I used to live 2 clocks from Fry's electronics, and tried ALL the 2.4 gigahertz phones they carried that (a) took a headset and (b) had a mute button on the handset.
Also, this is one of the few phones, and few V-Tech phones, that still has a MUTE button on the handset! (just just on the control box...who wants to walk back to their desk to clear their throat?)
No need to have phone plugs established in every room! Yay! Wherever you have electricity, within a reasonable distance from the base unit, this phone works!
I prefer buying my own wraparound headsets, even though they seem to come in these boxes now.
By the way, use only the 40-2420 as additional handsets. There is a 2420 (stupidly enough) that doesn't work on a four-line phone!
Don't point the antennae "up" unless you've tried it and it gives you better reception. My experience is that lessens the quality.
Good idea to plug the base unit into your battery backup.
Nice idea, poor implementation.......2002-12-01
phone system for the past few years, so now that we have
three lines this looked like just the right thing.
Unfortunately this system appears to have been designed by a
completely different team. The handsets are very large (too
large to fit into a pocket), the menus are more difficult to
use, the speed-dial feature is extremely clumsy, and the
signal quality is very poor, with lots of hissing in the
background. We've sent this one back and replaced it with a
two-line VTech 20-2431 system, which is much more like the
original 2431 and doesn't suffer from the problems of the
40-2421 series.
