IP 4000, 6000, and 7000 conference phones are full-duplex speakerphones. The SoundPoint IP 301 phones is a listen-only speakerphone. The SoundPoint IP phones provide dedicated keys for convenient selection of either the speakerphone or headset.

Local Contact Directory

The phone maintains a local contact directory. The directory can be downloaded from the boot server and edited locally (if configured in that way). Contact information from previous calls may be easily added to the directory for convenient future access.

The directory is the central database for several other features including speed-dial, distinctive incoming call treatment, presence, and instant messaging.
