4600-series IP telephones

The 4600-series telephones are DCP telephones that use Internet Protocol (IP) technology with
Ethernet line interfaces. IP (Internet Protocol) telephones obtain their operational characteristics
from your central telephone server rather than residing in the phone unit itself. Updates and new
features are downloaded to your phone without intervention or the need for phone
replacement.Firmware for these phones can be downloaded from the internet. The 4600 series
includes a 2-button set, 6-button sets, a 12-button set, and a 24-button set.
Each of the 4600-series phones includes 6 standard feature buttons:
SPEAKER button, which can access a 2-way speakerphone or allow group listen
●
MUTE button, which mutes the handset or speakerphone microphone
●
HOLD button
●
REDIAL button
●
TRANSFER/TEST button for transferring a call or testing the lights and display on the
●
telephone
CONF/RING button for setting up a conference call and for selecting a personalized
●
ringing pattern.
The 4604, 4612, and 4624 phones do not have a standard Drop button, but you can assign a
drop button to any feature button. The 4600-series display phones show the date and time in
Normal mode, so you do not have to assign a Date/Time button to these phones.
