Product Description

The Cisco 7940G IP Phone is best suited for an employee in a basic office cubicle environment - a transaction type worker, for example - who conducts a medium amount of business via telephone. It has access to at least two telephone lines (or combination one line and one direct access to telephony feature i.e., AutoDial). High quality, hands-free speakerphone capability and built-in headset connectivity are included. A large pixel-based display provides caller information, access to applications, and makes it easy to use telephone features.
