along with special services and features, if appropriate. The table below provides an overview of some
configuration options that you might want to discuss with your phone system administrator based on

If you...
Need to handle

phone line
Need more than
one phone line
Need more speed
dial buttons
Work with (or
work as) an
administrative
assistant
Want to use one
extension for
several phones
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7961G/7961G-GE and 7941G/7941G-GE for Cisco Unified CallManager 4.2(3)
Then...
Ask your system administrator to
configure your line to support more
calls.
Ask your system administrator to
configure one or more additional
directory numbers for you.
First make sure that you are using all of
your currently available speed dial
buttons.
If you need additional speed dial
buttons, try using Abbreviated Dialing
or subscribing to the Fast Dial service.
Another option is to attach the
Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion
Module 7914 to your phone.
Consider using:
• The Cisco Unified CallManager
Assistant service
• A shared line
Request a shared line. This allows you to
use one extension for your desk phone
and lab phone, for example.
