Cisco CP-7916 Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916

Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916

Overview

Call coverage is a critical capability for administrative assistants and others who must monitor, manage, and cover the status of calls. This capability requires the ability to instantly determine the status of numerous lines beyond the six-line capability of the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G and 7965G models and eight-line capability of the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975G.

The Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 extends the capabilities of the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G, 7965G, and 7975G models with additional buttons and an LCD display. With this expansion module, you add 12 physical keys with access to 12 additional keys through the page keys for a total of 24 buttons to the existing 6 buttons of the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G and 7965G (Figure 2) models and the existing 8 buttons of the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975G. You can use up to two Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 modules (Figure 3) with the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G, 7965G, and 7975G models.

Features and Benefits

The large LCD display of the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 allows for quick and easy identification of associated buttons. Using the Settings menu of the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G, 7965G, and 7975G models, you can adjust the brightness of the individual LCDs for these phones and the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 according to your preference. You can program the buttons on each Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 as a directory number, line key, or speed-dial key, much like on the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G, 7965G, and 7975G models. Buttons used as a directory-number (DN) or shared line keys are illuminated, allowing easy identification of call state

Illuminated Buttons

These capabilities provide features that are similar to typical Direct Station Selection/Busy Lamp Field (DSS/BLF) modules but are not intended to be directly comperable to traditional DSS/BLF modules. The Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 is not an operator or attendant console. The primary function of this module is to provide the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G, 7965G, and 7975G models with additional keys for features such as speed dial or directory numbers. The illuminated buttons provide ease of line status, making the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 an ideal call-coverage tool.
