Digital Answering System 1740

The AT&T 1740 is a standalone digital answering system designed for home or small office use. It records outgoing announcements and incoming messages on a microchip, providing up to 60 minutes of total recording time. Tapeless operation removes the need for cassettes and allows instant access to any message.

Best for simple call screening.

This unit suits anyone who needs a single dedicated answering machine with time and date stamps on every message. Buyers who require voicemail-to-email, remote access via an app, or integration with a multi-line phone system will not find those features here.

60-minute microchip recording capacity

The microchip stores up to 60 minutes of announcements, memos and incoming messages without batteries. Message guard memory retains every recording during a power failure, and variable-speed playback lets you review messages at your preferred pace.
