The phone also includes features like programmable buttons, which allow users to customize their interface according to personal needs or preferences. Users can create speed dials, transfer calls, or access voicemail effortlessly. The SPA941 supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, which simplifies installation by enabling the phone to receive power directly over the Ethernet cable, thereby reducing clutter from additional power adapters.
