An Overview of Your Phone
Your Cisco Unified IP Phone is a full-feature telephone that provides voice communication over the same data network that your computer uses, allowing you to place and receive phone calls, put calls on hold, transfer calls, make conference calls, and so on.

•Access to network data, XML applications, and web-based services.
•Online customizing of phone features and services from your Cisco Unified CM User Options web pages.
•A comprehensive online help system that displays information on the phone screen.
