VVX business media phones enable you to place and answer SIP and H.323 calls, ignore incoming calls
from all or individual contacts, and perform server-dependent tasks.
Note: Some of the audio features available on VVX business media phones require access to the Basic
settings menu. If your phone requires a password to access the Basic settings menu, contact
your system administrator for assistance customizing your phone.
Placing and Answering Audio Calls
VVX business media phones can manage between eight and 24 audio calls depending on the model.
VVX 101 and 201 phones can manage a maximum of eight active, incoming, and held audio calls at a
time. VVX 300 series, 400 series, 500 series, 600 series, 1500 phones can manage a maximum of 24
active, incoming, and held audio calls at a time.
However, you can have only one active call in progress with numerous other incoming calls or calls on
hold on all phones. Additionally, your system administrator can set up your phone to have up to six lines
with unique extension numbers or the same extension number as other lines on your network.
