You can make a paging announcement to several people at once. Your paging announcement can be heard through an external speaker and through the built-in speakers of proprietary telephones (PTs). An extension user can answer your paging announcement and establish an intercom call. There are 4 types of paging as shown below:
All Extensions:
Paging through the built-in speakers of all PTs.
Group:
Paging to a certain extension group through the built-in speakers of PTs.
External:
Paging through an external speaker.
All Extensions & External:
Paging through both the built-in speakers of all PTs and an external speaker.
