Numbers to use for campus, off-campus local and long distance calls
To dial the number, you can use the phone device to punch in an entire number (e.g., 5551212) then either lift the receiver or press the speaker phone key.
On-campus calls
If you are on campus, you dial five-digit extension numbers. Extensions beginning with an 8 denote administrative/faculty numbers. Extensions starting with 3 indicate non-direct extensions (e.g., elevator phones or phones in residence hall lobbies).
Off-campus local calls
Dial the desired number (e.g., 5551212).
Direct dial long distance calls
Dial Area Code + seven digit number (e.g., 6085551212.)
If you have a CX600 Polycom phone, functionality is limited if the phone is locked:
- You can make and receive calls, but functionality is limited, for example it is not possible to transfer a call when the phone is locked. In order to transfer the call, you need to unlock and enter the PIN – this can be done without putting the call on hold.
- You cannot access voice mail and calendar when the phone is locked, but you can see the time of your next meeting.
How to unlock a CX600 phone
- Log in to the computer, or
- Unlock it manually by pressing Left Select. The PIN entry screen appears. Enter your PIN, and press Left Select or OK.
