Using CP960 Star Connection Feature
You can deploy up to four CP960 conference phones in a star layout in a large meeting room, one as the master phone
and others as the slave phones. The master phone keeps all features, while the slave phones only sync some key fea-
tures of the master phone, such as DND and call mute. After connecting, the slave phones are mainly used to work as
speakers or microphones.
This feature allows users to control the calls either on the master phone or on the slave phones; it also helps all par-
ticipants to hear each other clearly even though they are distance away in the meeting room.
The following shows an example for setting up a star connection group:
