Dual Phone System Integration

Cisco Unity can be integrated with one each of the following phone systems at the same time:

A traditional, circuit-switched phone system. Any traditional phone system that Cisco Unity integrates with can be used in a dual phone system integration.

Cisco CallManager.

All extensions for subscribers and call handlers must be unique regardless of which phone system a subscriber (or call handler) uses. To transfer calls from one phone system to the other, Cisco Unity must dial the same access codes that a subscriber dials when calling someone on the other phone system.

Dual Phone System Integration Overview

Before performing the following integration steps, confirm that the Cisco Unityserver is ready for the integration by completing the appropriate tasks in Chapters 1 through 3 of the Cisco Unity Installation Guide.
