latest technology and advancements in Gigabit Ethernet VoIP telephony. The
Cisco
Unified IP Phone functions much like a digital business phone, allowing
you to place and receive phone calls and to access features such as mute, hold,
transfer, speed dial, call forward, and more. In addition, because the phone is

including access to network information and services, and customizeable features
and services. The phone also supports security features that include file
authentication, device authentication, signaling encryption, and media
