Your 1608 telephone
The IP Office supports the 1608 telephone.
The telephone supports 8 programmable call appearance and feature buttons. The labels for these are displayed in the
main display and can be controlled by the adjacent buttons.
Your system administrator can assign functions to the telephone call appearance and feature buttons, or you can assign
them yourself. However, you cannot replace the call appearance buttons set by your system administrator. There are
features that the system administrator can set, but you cannot assign those features.
