What office phone system do I have and how do I update it?

My two-employee (with an occasional intern) office has a very old phone system, one with probably more features than we need. We have four lines coming in. A few weeks ago, something strange happened to the phones, making them not work the same way they used to. Since this system is so old, we do not have any of the telephone or system manuals and don’t know how to fix it. We may need new phones or an entire new system.

The current phone seems to be a PBX system. The cabinet and three phones are all Fujitsu. I guess my question is can I just buy new 4-line phones (nice and cheap) and us them with the current cabinet, or do I also need a new cabinet (not so cheap)?

Our office would probably be fine with a key-less system, just using the phones, but I imagine that would involve a removal of the current cabinet, which would also require professional installation (un-installation) services. Any ideas are appreciated. We are looking for the most cost-effective option. Thanks.

with only 4 lines you should do fine with the 4 line small business “system” phones offered by at&t and several other companies… the phones are less then $200 each… they have most of same features that you are used to.. the cabnet can be removed or bypassed.. but the jacks will need to be rewired… but this is fairly simple (so long as each jack has at least 4 pair wire going to it)

if each jack has 4 pair wire going to it, you can pretty much rewire this yourself…

at the cabnet, when you remove the CO lines from the system, you want to connect line 1 to the blue white of the station wires, line 2 to the orange white of the station wires, line 3 to the green/white of the station wires, and line 4 to the brown.white of the station wires…

now at each station, or phone jack that you have existing, you will need to add a second jack… jack 1, the existing (or you can replace it if you like) will have blue/white going to green/red, and orange/white going to yellow/black…
jack 2 will have green/white going to green/red, and brown/white going to yellow black…

even if you hire someone to rewire, it will most likely be cheaper then replacing the system…
unless you want on hold music, or have on site voice mail… i think this is the way to go..
