CAPs become enhanced CAPs (eCAPs) when you identify the telephone DN under the CAP/KIM assignment. You can configure a maximum of 12 CAPs as eCAPs on the system.
All CAPs can be programmed with quick dial numbers that allow the person at this station to monitor and answer call traffic into the group. If you program the CAP to be an eCAP, lines, hunt group appearances, and line appearances can also be moved to the module.
