Speed-Dial Numbers
Features
Additional phones
Description
Specify additional phones (your mobile and other phones) that you want to use to make and receive calls with the same directory numbers as your desk phone. You can also define blocked and preferred contacts to restrict or allow calls from certain numbers to be sent to your mobile phone. When you set up additional phones, you can also set up these features:
• Single number reach—Specify whether the additional phone should ring when someone calls your desk phone.
• Mobile calls—If the additional phone is a mobile phone, you can set it up to allow you to transfer mobile calls to your desk phone or desk phone calls to your mobile phone.
Speed dial Assign phone numbers to speed-dial numbers so that you can quickly call that person.
Speed-Dial Numbers
When you dial a number on your phone, you enter a series of digits. When you set up a speed-dial number, the speed-dial number must contain all the digits you need to make the call. For example, if you need to dial
9 to get an outside line, you enter the number 9 and then the number you want to dial.
You can also add other dialed digits to the number. Examples of additional digits include a meeting access code, an extension, a voicemail password, an authorization code, and a billing code.
The dial string can contain the following characters:
• 0 to 9
• Pound (#)
• Asterisk (*)
• Comma (,)—This is the pause character, and gives a 2- second delay in the dialing. You can have several commas in a row. For example, two commas (,,) represent a pause of 4 seconds.
The rules for dial strings are:
• Use the comma to separate the parts of the dial string.
• An authorization code must always precede a billing code in the speed-dial string.
• A single comma is required between the authorization code and the billing code in the string.
• A speed-dial label is required for speed dials with authorization codes and additional digits.
Before you configure the speed dial, try to dial the digits manually at least once to ensure that the digit sequence is correct.

Buttons and Hardware
Note
Your phone does not save the authorization code, billing code, or extra digits from the speed dial in the call history. If you press Redial after you connect to a speed-dial destination, the phone prompts you to enter any required authorization code, billing code, or additional digits manually.
Example
To set up a speed-dial number to call a person at a specific extension, and if you need an authorization code and billing code, consider the following requirements:
• You need to dial 9 for an outside line.
• You want to call 5556543.
• You need to input the authorization code 1234.
• You need to input the billing code 9876.
• You must wait for 4 seconds.
• After the call connects, you must dial the extension 56789#.
In this scenario, the speed-dial number is 95556543,1234,9876,,56789#.

Phone Screen Features
The phone screen shows information about your phone such as directory number, active call and line status, softkeys, speed dials, and placed calls. The screen is made up of these sections:
• Header section—displays the phone number, Wi-Fi strength, battery charge, and a number of feature icons. The feature icons display when features are active.
• Middle section—displays the home screen with its application (app) icons.
• Footer section—displays the current date and time or softkey labels. Each softkey label indicates the action for the softkey button below the screen.
Differences Between Phone Calls and Lines
We use the terms lines and calls in very specific ways to explain how to use your phone. Here is an explanation of the differences.
Lines
Each line corresponds to a directory number or intercom number that others can use to call you. Your phone supports up to six lines. To see your phone lines, press Phone to open the line view. You have as many lines as you have directory numbers with phone line icons in the line view list.
Calls
Each line can support multiple calls, typically up to four calls. Your phone can support up to 24 connected calls, but your system administrator can adjust this number according to your needs. Only one call can be active at any time; other calls are automatically placed on hold.
Here is an example: If you have two lines and each line supports four calls, then you could have up to eight connected calls at one time. Only one of those calls is active and the other seven are held calls.

Out-of-Range Alerts
Out-of-Range Alerts
Your system administrator can configure your phone to send you an audible alert (beep) when you are out of range of the wireless network. When you hear the alert, the (no signal) icon displays on the phone screen.
When you are out of range of the wireless network, you cannot use the phone for features requiring a wireless network connection, such as making and receiving calls.
If your system administrator enabled the out-of-range alert, depending on the configuration, you might hear a beep only once, or every 10, 30, or 60 seconds until you are back within range of the wireless network.
To reconnect to the wireless network after you hear the alert, move to another location until you see the signal icon on the phone screen again.
Phone Batteries
Your phone contains a lithium ion battery. The fully charged battery provides the following hours of service:
• Up to 13 hours of talk time
• Up to 240 hours of standby time
Battery life depends on a number of factors including:
• On time—The battery life is reduced when the phone is turned on. Calls, messages, application use,
Bluetooth use, and actions like menu navigation use power.
• Scan mode—Your phone can be set up for scan the access points in three different ways (Continuous,
Auto, Single AP). If your phone uses Continuous or Auto scan modes, the phone requires more power, which reduces battery talk time.
If you require longer talk times, you will find it useful to have a spare, charged battery.
Bluetooth and Your Phone
You can use a Bluetooth headset with your phone.
Bluetooth connections work best when you're within 3 to 6 feet (1 to 2 meters) from your phone, but you might be able to be as far away as 66 feet (20 meters). The Bluetooth connection can degrade if you have a barrier (wall, door, window), large metal object, or other electronic devices between your phone and the connected device.
To connect a headset to your phone with Bluetooth, you start by pairing the headset with your phone. You can pair up to 5 Bluetooth headsets with the phone. After the headset is paired, the phone connects to the headset when the headset is turned on. The last Bluetooth headset connected with the phone is the headset that the phone uses.

Prioritized Calls
In your job, you might need to handle urgent or critical situations using your phone. You can identify calls as being very important, and thus have a higher priority than normal calls. The priorities range from level 1
(low) to level 5 (high). This system of priorities is called Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP).
Your administrator sets up the priorities that you can use and determines if you need special sign-in information.
When a high-priority call rings on your phone, you see the priority level on the phone screen. If you are on a call when a high-priority call comes to your phone, the high-priority call preempts the current call and you hear a special preemption ringtone. You should hang up from your current call to answer the high-priority call.
When you are on a high-priority call, the priority of the call does not change when you:
• Put the call on hold
• Transfer the call
• Add the call to a three-way conference
• Answer the call using call pickup

You can share the same phone number with one or more of your coworkers. For example, as an administrative assistant, you might be responsible for screening calls for the person that you support.
When you share a phone number, you can use that phone line just like you would any other line, but you should be aware of a few special characteristics about shared lines:
• The shared phone number appears on all phones that share the number.
• If your coworker answers a call on the shared line, the shared line icon displays in red on your phone.
• If you put a call on hold, your shared line icon is white. But your coworker sees the line in red.

For more information, contact your administrator.
Use the Push to Talk Application
You can use the Push to Talk service to communicate (similar to a two-way radio) with members of your organization. Your administrator must set up the Push to Talk service, and then you must subscribe to the service in the Self Care portal.
Note

You can use wired and Bluetooth headsets with your phone. For information about the supported headsets, see the Cisco Wireless IP Phone 882x Series Accessory Guide.
Although we perform some internal testing of third-party wired and Bluetooth wireless headsets for use with the Cisco Wireless IP Phone 8821 and 8821-EX, we do not certify or support products from headset or handset vendors. Because of the inherent environmental and hardware inconsistencies in the locations where phones are deployed, there is not a single “best” solution that is optimal for all environments. We recommend that customers test the headsets that work best in their environment before deploying a large number of units in their network.
Note
The Cisco Wireless IP Phone 8821-EX has not been tested for wired and Bluetooth headsets in hazardous locations.
We recommend the use of good quality external devices, like headsets that are screened against unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals. Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as cell phones and two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur.
The primary reason that a particular headset would be inappropriate for the phone is the potential for an audible hum. This hum can be heard by either the remote party or by both the remote party and you, the phone user.
Some potential humming or buzzing sounds can be caused by a range of outside sources, for example, electric lights, electric motors, or large PC monitors. In some instances, the mechanics or electronics of various headsets can cause remote parties to hear an echo of their own voice when they speak to phone users.

Standard Headsets
You can use a wired headset with your phone. The headset requires a 3.5 mm, 3-band, 4-connector plug.
If you plug a headset into the phone during an active call, the audio path automatically changes to the headset.
Bluetooth Headsets
You can use a Bluetooth headset with your phone. When you use a Bluetooth wireless headsets, the headset usually increases battery power consumption on your phone and may result in reducing battery life.
For a Bluetooth wireless headset to work, it does not need to be within direct line-of-sight of the phone, but some barriers, such as walls or doors, and interference from other electronic devices, can affect the connection.

Product Safety and Security
Phone Behavior During Times of Network Congestion
Cisco recommends the use of good quality external devices (such as headsets) that are shielded against unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals.
Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as mobile phones or two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. In these cases, Cisco recommends that you take one or more of the following actions:
• Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
• Route the external device cables away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
• Use shielded cables for the external device, or use cables with a better shield and connector.
• Shorten the length of the external device cable.
• Apply ferrites or other such devices on the cables for the external device.
Cisco cannot guarantee the performance of the system because Cisco has no control over the quality of external devices, cables, and connectors. The system will perform adequately when suitable devices are attached using good quality cables and connectors.
Caution
In European Union countries, use only external headsets that are fully compliant with the EMC Directive
[89/336/EC].
Phone Behavior During Times of Network Congestion
Anything that degrades network performance can affect Cisco IP Phone voice and video quality, and in some cases, can cause a call to drop. Sources of network degradation can include, but are not limited to, the following activities:
• Administrative tasks, such as an internal port scan or security scan
• Attacks that occur on your network, such as a Denial of Service attack

SAR Statement
The Cisco Wireless IP Phone 882x Series handsets have been tested for body-worn Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) compliance using the specific belt-clip/holster configuration provided with the handset. The FCC has established the detailed body-worn SAR requirements and has established that these requirements have been met with the specific belt-clip/holster provided with the handset. Other belt-clip/holsters or similar accessories that have not been tested may not comply and therefore should be avoided.
RF Exposure Information
The radio module has been evaluated under FCC Bulletin OET 65C (01-01) and found to be compliant to the requirements as set forth in 47 CFR Sections 2.1091, 2.1093, and 15.247 (b) (4) addressing RF Exposure from radio frequency devices. This model meets the applicable government requirements for exposure to radio frequency waves.
This wireless phone contains a radio transceiver. The radio transceiver and antenna have been designed to meet the RF emission requirements for human exposure as specified by the FCC as well as by other agencies from other countries. These guidelines were developed by the industry based on guidance from the World
Health Organization (WHO). These industry standards have been developed to include additional safety margins to ensure that the user is exposed to the least amount of RF radiation.
The radio transceiver uses a non ionization type of radiation as opposed to an ionized radiation such as an
X-Ray wave.

The exposure standard for these devices references a unit of measure known as SAR. The limit as set by the
FCC is 1.6W/kg. The tests for this emission level is done in an independent laboratory who employs test methods and operating positions reviewed by the FCC and other agencies.
Before the phone was placed on the market, the product was tested and certified in accordance with the FCC regulations to verify that the product did not exceed the FCC SAR requirements.
Additional information on SAR and RF Exposure can be obtained off the FCC website at: http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/rfsafety
There is no conclusive proof that these mobile phones are or are not a health risk. The FDA and numerous researchers are continuing studies of RF radiation and health issues. Additional information on this subject can be obtained from the FDA web site at: http://www.fda.gov
A recent Swedish study concluded that there is no link between the RF energy emitted from mobile phones and cancer. For more information, refer to the article written by John Boice and Joseph McLaughlin entitled
“Epidemiological Studies of Cellular Telephones and Cancer Risk.”
The Cisco Wireless IP Phone 882x Series operates at power levels that are 5 to 6 times lower than most standard cellular, Personal Communications Service (PCS), or Global System for Mobile Communication
(GSM) phones. This lower power coupled with a lower transmitter duty cycle reduces the user’s exposure to the RF fields.
There are several suggested methods to reduce exposure for the user. Among those include:
1
Using a hands-free handset to increase the distance between the antenna and the head of the user.
2
Orienting the antenna away from the user.

Use of IP Networks with the PSTN
Internet Protocol (IP) by its nature introduces delay into speech signals as each data packet is formulated and addressed. Telecom Access Standards recommends that suppliers, designers and installers using this technology for calls to or from the PSTN refer to ITU E Model requirements in the design of their networks. The overall aim is to minimise delay, distortion and other transmission impairments, particularly for those calls involving cellular and international networks, which already suffer extensive delay.
The Use of Voice Compression Through the PSTN
Because of the extensive delay already experienced when calling cellular and international networks, some of which is already caused by their use of voice compression technologies. Telecom Access Standards will only approve G711 voice technology for use on the PSTN. G711 is an ‘instantaneous speech-encoding technique’ whereas G729 and all its variants are considered ‘near instantaneous’ introducing additional delay into the speech signal.
Echo Cancellation
Echo cancellers are not normally required in the Telecom PSTN because geographic delays are acceptable where CPE return loss is maintained within Telepermit limits. However, those private networks making use of Voice-over-IP (VoIP) technology are required to provide echo cancellation for all voice calls. The combined effect of audio/VoIP conversion delay and IP routing delay can cause the echo cancellation time of 64 mS to be required.
