Overview of the Cisco Small Business IP Phones  
1
Overview of the Cisco Small Business IP Phones  
The Cisco Small Business IP Phones are full-featured phones that support  
communications within your office and with the outside world, whether through  
local telephone lines or Voice over IP (VoIP) networks.  
Calling Features: Features include call forwarding, redialing, speed dialing,  
call transfers, conference calls, intercom calls, and voicemail access.  
Depending on the phone model, you can make and receive calls with the  
handset, the built-in speaker, or a compatible third-party headset that you  
install separately.  
Networking Features: The Cisco Small Business IP phones connect to the  
computer network through Ethernet ports. The Cisco SPA525G/G2 can  
connect to a wireless voice network, if available. Most models also have an  
additional Ethernet port that you can use to connect a computer to the  
network. (Not applicable to the Cisco SPA525G/G2 when used wirelessly.)  
Power: Unlike traditional phones, Cisco Small Business IP phones require a  
separate power source. Depending on the phone model, the phone may  
receive power from an Ethernet switch on your network or from a power  
adapter.  
Care: The Cisco Small Business IP phones are electronic devices that  
should not be exposed to excessive heat, sun, cold, or water. To clean the  
equipment, use a slightly moistened paper or cloth towel. Do not spray or  
pour cleaning solution directly onto the hardware unit.

a hot phone could allow visitors to immediately call an attendant. In a medical  
clinic, a hot phone could allow personnel to immediately call for emergency  
assistance.  
NOTE You may compare the hot phone function to the Private Line Automatic Dial (PLAR)  
or Hotdial function in other phone systems. The hot phone function applies to the  
phone, not to a line button.  
To place a call to the target number, choose an audio device. There may be a short  
delay before the call is connected.

Using a Paired Phone  
If you frequently work between two locations in the office, your phone system  
administrator may associate your primary phone with another phone The paired  
phone inherits the phone buttons from the primary phone, up to the total number of  
buttons available on the phone model.  
When using a paired phone, be aware that it functions somewhat differently from  
an IP phone:  
Basic phone functions are the same on both phones. You can resume a held  
call from either phone. On Cisco SPA phones, the phone button lights show  
the status of calls. For more information, see Status Indicators, page 21.  
A paired phone has no soft key to forward all calls. It uses the call forward  
settings that are configured by the phone system administrator.  
Pressing the Do Not Disturb (DND) softkey on a primary phone will prevent  
calls from ringing on the phone; however, calls will ring on the paired phone.  
A call is not diverted to the Call Forward No Answer destination until the  
timeout limit is reached. Pressing the DND softkey on the paired phone will  
divert calls to the specified Call Forward No Answer destination.
