Introducing Your 4620/4620SW/4621SW IP Telephone

Additional 4620/4620SW/4621SW Functionality

Push Feature

Your System Administrator can “push” a Web page, a text message, an audio message, or any combination of those items to your 4620/4620SW/4621SW IP Telephone. Depending on how the pushed material is administered, it may override what is otherwise presented by the telephone. In general, the pushed content is also accompanied by one or more notification tones. Specifically, your System Administrator can:

●Use the telephone’s browser to display a specific Web page instead of displaying whatever you were viewing. Alternatively, the System Administrator can have a Web page available in the background, for you to view when you use the Web application. Typically, in this second case, you would generally get a message on the display’s top line alerting you to the waiting Web page.

●Present a text message on the top display line. This message may temporarily overwrite whatever is otherwise displayed on the top line.

●Present an audio message, even if you are on a call. If you are not on a call, the telephone usually goes off-hook automatically on the Speaker. If you are on a call, the party with whom you are speaking is automatically put on Hold and cannot hear the pushed message. Once you start hearing the pushed message, you can stop listening by selecting a Call Appearance Line (for example, the line you were on when the pushed message came in), going back on-hook, etc. Typically though, pushed audio messages involve emergencies or other important information, and should be listened to. Once a message completes, you can return to your existing call.

Automatic Backup/Retrieval Feature

If your telephone is appropriately administered, (see Backup/Restore Options), you can store your Speed Dial button data, options settings and other personal settings on an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) server in your network. When you log in to any 4620/4620SW/4621SW IP Telephone supporting Release 2.1 or later software, that telephone attempts to retrieve your data from that server. Assuming both the original phone and the second phone are properly administered, this second telephone displays your data and settings, even if you have never used that particular phone before. Your System Administrator has more information about how this feature operates.

If the telephone supports the automatic retrieval procedure described in the previous paragraph, your phone also automatically stores changes you make to associated button data, settings, etc.
