Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7915:

Call coverage is a critical capability for executive administrators and others who monitor and manage the various status of calls. For high call volume positions, the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7915 and the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7916 deliver an adjunct solution to instantly determine the status of a number of lines beyond the number supported natively in the wideband audio Cisco Unified IP Phones 7962G, 7965G and Phone 7975G. The Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Modules extend the call coverage capabilities with additional buttons and an LCD display.

Product Overview

The Cisco® Unified Communications system of voice and IP communications products and applications enables organizations to communicate more effectively-enabling them to streamline business processes, reach the right resource the first time and impact the top and bottom line. The Cisco Unified Communications portfolio is an integral part of the Cisco Business Communications Solution-an integrated solution for organizations of all sizes which also includes network infrastructure, security, and network management products, wireless connectivity, and a lifecycle services approach, along with flexible deployment and outsourced management options, end-user and partner financing packages, and third-party communications applications.

The power of the Cisco Unified Communications family of products extends throughout the enterprise by delivering powerful, converged voice solutions with the new Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7915 extending capabilities to wideband audio phones.

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 7915 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 six buttons of the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G and 7965G 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 7915 modules 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 7915 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 contrast of the individual LCDs for these phones and the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7915 according to your preference. You can program the buttons on each Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7915 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

Button	Line Status
Off (dark)	Line available
Green, steady	Line in use by you; you may also transfer the call
Red, steady	Line in use by someone else
Amber, flashing	Line ringing
Green, flashing	Call is on hold

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 7915 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 7915 an ideal call-coverage tool.

The two illuminated page buttons beneath the display of the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module 7915 allow you to shift between the first and second pages of 12 buttons, providing access to all 24 keys, 12 at a time.

Illuminated Page Buttons

Button	Page Status
Off (dark)	Page not in focus
Green, steady	Page in focus
Amber, flashing	Page not in focus with one or more alerting or on-hold calls present on page
