Localizing Your IP Phone

To get better detection by the IVR, avoid inband and use OOB. This way, the DTMF
tone is reconstructed by the PSTN gateway or the remote endpoint, and the
quality is not subject to distortion from the audio codec. If you use OOB, use a
slightly longer DTMF Playback Length.
If you use inband, use a higher Inband DTMF boost.
NOTE On the Cisco SPA 525G2, when using the Mobile Link line (through the Bluetooth-
enabled mobile phone), the local user can hear a double tone (echo) when pressing
digits (DTMF tones) while engaged on a call. This can happen with certain mobile
phones that have the option to play locally the local tone (which is also played by
the Cisco SPA 525G2). This does not affect operation with interactive voice
response applications, as the tone is audible only on the local device. See the Cisco
support community at http://www.cisco.com/go/smallbizsupport for phone
compatability information, and also consult the latest Cisco SPA 525G2 release
notes, available at cisco.com.
