name of the party they would like to reach. Names that match these three letters are
played and the caller selects the extension to which they want to be transferred. Names
are stated in the directory as they have been recorded by users in their voicemail box.
Direct Inward Dialing (DID) Numbers
A Direct Inward Dialed (DID) number is a telephone number assigned by a service
provider (i.e., T1 line, PRI or VoIP). DIDs allow direct routing of a call to a destination
within the system. This can be an individual extension, group, conference or menu.
Conferencing (Meet Me)
A Meet-me Conference is an extension on the system used for conference calls.
Participants of a conference can access a conference by dialing the designated Meet-me
Conference extension. Routing callers to a Meet-me Conference can be accomplished by
using a DID, a menu, or simply transferring callers to the conference extension.
Forwarding Gateway
Mobility has become a part of everyday life for most people. System users need to be
able to take calls anywhere. The IPitomy 1000 has the ability to forward calls. Users can
turn call forwarding “on” and “off” while in the office or away from the office by using a
touch-tone key pad. This is setup in the Extensions setup page, but can be modified from
any phone, including a cell phone. Modifying forward settings remotely requires the
automated attendant (menu) option to be programmed.
Voicemail Gateway
From the automated attendant (menu), users can call in from any telephone and check
messages. The voicemail gateway allows users to dial a pre-defined digit from a touch-
tone key pad on any phone to retrieve their messages.
Branch Offices
Branch offices can be created to allow multiple PBXs to route calls to each other. Branch
office extensions can be transferred to, or placed in ring groups, or selected as menu
destinations.
Supported IP Phone Sets
The IPitomy 1000 works with a variety of business-grade IP phone sets. See Appendix 1: IP
Telephones for a complete list.
