Placing Audio-only Calls and Adding Audio-only Sites
6
When you call an IP system through a gateway that requires an extension (E.164
address), enter the extension in the dialing field whenever possible. Check with
your network administrator for the extension delimiter you will need to enter into the
dialing field. For example, some networks use ## to separate the extension from
the IP address.
When you include the extension, you will be given the option of saving both the
number and the extension in the directory when the call ends. If you enter the
extension after the gateway connects, you can save only the gateway number when
the call ends.
You may be able to use your Polycom HDX system to place an audio-only call
or add an audio-only call to a video conference.
