Hardware Features
Ergonomic design
The phone offers an easy-to-use interface and provides a traditional telephony-like user experience.
Graphical display
The 800 × 480, 24-bit color, 5-in. WVGA display provides scrollable access to calling features and text-based
XML applications.
Handset
The handset is a standard wideband-capable audio handset (connects through an RJ-9 port).
The standard coiled cord has a custom end for concealed cable routing beneath the phone (cord length is
approximately 21 in. [55 cm] coiled and up to 72 in. (183 cm) extended).
The handset is hearing aid-compatible (HAC) and meets Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
loudness requirements for the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Section 508 loudness requirements can
be achieved using industry-standard inline handset amplifiers such as Walker Equipment W-10 or CE-100
amplifiers. The dial pad is also ADA-compliant.
Speaker phone
A full-duplex speakerphone gives you flexibility in placing and receiving calls with hands free.
Analog headset
The analog headset jack is a standard wideband-capable RJ-9 audio port.
AUX port
You can use an auxiliary port to support electronic hookswitch control with a third-party headset connected
to it.
Ethernet switch
An internal 2-port Cisco Ethernet switch allows for a direct connection to a 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet
network (IEEE 802.3i/802.3u/802.3ab) through a RJ-45 interface with single LAN connectivity for both the
phone and a co-located PC.
The system administrator can designate separate VLANs (IEEE 802.1Q) for the PC and phone, providing
improved security and reliability of voice and data traffic.
