What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This is an expansion handset for the Panasonic KX-TGM420 amplified cordless phone system, sold as ILA model 721148. It delivers the same features as the main unit — 40dB of audio amplification, a talking keypad that announces keys as you press them, and talking caller ID — so you can place a fully accessible phone in an additional room without losing any functionality. It's designed for someone with moderate hearing loss or low vision who wants accessible phone coverage throughout their home, not just near the base unit. This handset cannot work on its own — it must be registered to an existing KX-TGM420 base unit (model 721148), which is sold separately, and the total system supports up to six handsets.
