The Cisco Unified IP Conference Phone 8831 is a feature-rich single-line conference station that provides voice transmission over the IP network. Its functionality is similar to that of a digital office phone: you can make and receive calls, as well as utilise features such as mute, hold, call transfer, speed dial, and call forwarding. Since conference stations are connected to the data network, they also offer enhanced IP telephony features, such as access to network information, network services, and custom functions and services. The conference station includes a backlit LCD display, support for up to ten speed dial numbers, and many other advanced features. In addition to basic call handling functions, your conference station supports productivity features that expand call processing capabilities.
