When am I being monitored at work? We have a new phone system at work and I cannot figure out when I am being monitored. My phone says Cisco 7600 IP phone or something like that. I go to my task manager and I see the monitoring program running but it doesn’t start to count, my monitor doesn’t blink, I do not hear an echo, etc… Does anybody know how to tell if you are being monitored at work when your company is using a Cisco VOIP phone system? I do not care for the “you should just do your job stuff”. If you know that answer I would appreciate it. If you just want to preach go take it somewhere else.

I would like to make phone calls with a Bluetooth headset and a VoIP phone from Cisco, IP phone 7940 series. The PC is already connect with the phone as I can dial directly from Outlook and being connected with the phone.
I thought that the Headset could be connected via the PC with the phone.
Any ideas?
Thanx

I would like to connect my Cisco 7912 phone at home and use it with some sort of voip service. I’m definately a newbie with voip stuff and I could use some help.

Do I need CCM? Can I use SIP?

I’ve seen lots of instructions for the 7940 but very little information about the 7912. Is this technology obsolete?

Some advice would be apprecaited.

Thanks!

Question: My company is planning to setup Cisco VoIP service to communicate for inter-branch communication. We don’t need to connect PSTN phone in VoIP. Please tell me what are the devices that I need to install this service.

Answer: Voice over IP refers to technology that transmits live voice communications across a network connection using IP protocols. (Check this for more VoIP Phone Info) A key benefit of Voice over IP is its capability to help reduce expenses because phone calls travel across the data network rather than the phone company’s services. IP telephony encompasses the entire range of VoIP related services such as the interconnection of phone sets for communications; associated services such as invoicing and dialing plans; and basic features including group calls, transfer, forward, and hold. These features might previously handled by a Private Branch Exchange (PBX).

Voice over IP is the basis for more advanced unified communications solutions. Crisco’s Unified Communications system of voice, image, mobility, and Internet Protocol communications offerings provides the tools for creating a single converged network that can handle multiple types of traffic concurrently. Crisco’s solution provides this functionality while sustaining a high level of network resilience, Quality of Service , and Protection. Important advantages of Cisco’s telephony technologies include:

A versatile, interoperable migration strategy that allows you to select IP products that handle your current need, while offering a smooth path for accelerating IP integration Quality of Service technologies that provide excellent voice quality by means of tight control of latency, loss, and distortion Network management technologies that provide system administration, repair, setup, fault monitoring, and device management.
The framework of Crisco’s IP communications solution is composed of communications endpoints, call-processing agents, and telephony applications.
