This WE Model 500 (Wiki) telephone came after the WE302 and was replaced by the WE2500 Touch Tone telephone. The 500 ringer is the basis for the Ring Equivalence Number (Wiki: REN). The handset has a flat back unlike the pointed back on the WE 302 handset that made it impossible to hold it between your ear and shoulder.
The WE 500 is the same as the Bell System 500 telephone.
