Who is it for?
The HT701 ATA is great if you have a single analog phone line that you’d like to convert to VoIP usage for your home or small to medium business (SMB).
In addition to that, if you are a telecommuter you’ll appreciate the HT701’s compact design for travelling and the inexpensive way this device allows conversion of standard analog phones, fax machines, and even conference phones to grant you access to IP-based phone services.

The 701 can be programmed so I only have to dial 7 digits when in my own area code, correct?
Correct.
The HT701 allows dialing to local area code numbers by dialing 7 numbers and the area code will be added automatically.
