Working with Multiple and Shared Lines
Your system administrator can customize your phone so that you have more
than one Line Key. Your phone can also share a line with another phone.
Supporting Multiple Lines
Your phone can support up to six different lines. Lines are assigned to the
Line Keys on your phone. Typically, the top-most Line Key is reserved for the
principal directory number (DN) of the phone.
When the phone is idle, Line Keys can display the following icons. (For
information on icons that display when the phone has a call, see “Phone Icons”
on page 9.)
Your phone can handle a maximum of 24 calls, distributed across all lines. If
your phone has two lines, and one line has 24 calls, your phone cannot accept
any other calls.
You can set up any available key (that is, one that is not assigned to a line) as
a Speed Dial Key. Speed Dial Keys display .
